When I do I look like a girl too!
Lol
My friend told me, the other day that I did, that I was hot/cute/sexy/had a nice body... I was all embarassed cause I was actually showing my body! :0 Scary stories lol.

Nah.  I prefer form fitting/somewhat tight clothes over the baggy look, but female clothes?  Hell no haha.

No, I'm really not into women's clothing and I won't wear them for any reason. No one can force me to wear them. Besides, women's clothing is way to inconvenient if you ask me.

I think that once I am on T and actually pass, I may become a bit more feminine.. cause I'm a feminine guy, I just dont embrace that side of me cause it makes me look like a girl.

Same as Elijah. I think that if I'd been born with the right parts, I'd probably crossdress. xD Hey, I did it for most of my life on and off!

Elijah: Im pretty feminine also...
Aaron: Yeah I think most of us have lol...

Occasionally I get curious and notice I've got a dress or something hidden in the back of my closet (that place is a wreck, I don't know half the stuff in there.) So I try it on, and I usually feel rather like I'm in drag. It's a bit odd. But outside? No way. Not only does it make me incredibly uncomfortable to look feminine, but I have to second female clothes being impractical. I like lifting my arms, moving my legs well enough to run, having pockets and being able to bend over without showing cleavage or. . . plumber's cleavage. I really don't think I could seriously go back to that.

Maybe if I looked male I would dress in drag on Halloween, but that's a different story.

Agreed.  Except I'd never do proper drag, like skirts and heels and bras because I never felt so good in that stuff.  But I would like to be able to wear quirky emo type tight tops/jeans without having bumps in the way.  I'm also slightly fond of guyliner.  But until I pass 100% just no!!

No offence to you guys who like it/can pull it off much respect to do what you like - but there is no way on God's green earth I would wear women's clothes... I can't remember ever shopping in that department by choice... Plus I look like a guy, trying to look like a girl who's trying to not look like a guy... If that makes sense?

No, I just don't like womens clothing. It doesn't fit my taste.

Even though she has quite large breasts, my wife says she is sometimes mistaken for a male. She has a very commanding face which kinda takes control, so I suppose people look at her face and stop.

She's generally quite pleased, though pretends to find it amusing.

I've been waiting for/trying to muster up the courage to post a thread about this.  Yes, I do.  I wondered if I were the only one.  It's only rarely though and I haven't dressed fully (wig, makeup, etc).  The most I've worn is a skirt and panties.  So I guess drag isn't quite the name for it.  I don't want to look female though or be treated like one while dressed.  My partner knows and supports me so..I dunno.  Haven't really told anyone else about it because I'm afraid they'll think I'm not really trans or something like that.

Yeah, I was wondering if I was the only one. I don't do it often, trust me its rare, but I don't mind it much.
But hey, everyone has their own thing, no one should judge you.
Its weird, I didn't feel I got treated any different except by my friend.
Its good that you have an understanding and supporting partner.
:]

Dressing in drag doesn't make you any less trans... I posted a thread a while back where I mentioned Gender Expression IS NOT Gender Identity. You don't have to be masculine to feel you should've been born male. There are very femme bioguys out there: guys that wear girl pants, or girl shirts, gay guys that like to be hairless, guys that dress in drag, guys that don't like sports, guys that don't like getting dirty... what you do or like doesn't determine if your trans, how you feel does. Ever since I was a child, I knew I was born into the wrong body, something didn't match. But that didn't mean I had to be all manly, and macho, and masculine. Yeah I have masculine habits and such, but I don't force myself to(or don't feel I have to) be the "typical guy".

It may not make me less trans, but I am a man. It just looks all wrong.

I'm sure a few of us had an 8th grade graduation. Well, at mine I was forced to have my nails done, wear a dress, wear heels, wear makeup and fix up my hair. My friend Jim, a gay man I've known since then, is the most frank person you'll ever meet. He tells it how it is and doesn't hold back. Even if it makes you cry. He told me I looked like a male (he had meant like an MTF) prostitute. Yeah.

Female clothes on me are just wrong.

theres no way i would ever put a female article of clothing on again. even if womens socks do fit me better i will wear mens. and when i first started binding i wore a sports bra but that made me feel so girly i quickly ordered a binder and tossed the bras. when i realized i was trans one of the first things i did was throw all my girl clothes in the garbage. even pre trans when i was a girl i hated womens clothes.

No way, not willingly.

The last time I wore a dress was in the summer of 2001, long long before I even considered that I was trans.  A friend of mine had bought all sorts of clothes she couldn't fit into, and since I'd had lost weight and could, she wanted me to model them.  I agreed, and let her do me all up in makeup.  This was something I never ever did, and so I figured, hey, why not just try it out?

Afterwards, when washing the makeup off in the bathroom mirror, I looked at myself and realized I looked like a guy in drag.  It was startling, and after that I would never agree to anything of the sort.  (that was also the point where I began to suspect I actually was a guy in drag, it's a shame so many years of denial followed)

I'm forced to dress in drag because I have family that doesn't understand and otherwise pick on me if I don't "dress proper". >.>; But even so, I still resist. It's just not me. :/

Finally, others who refer to girl's clothing as dressing in drag as well! But to answer the question; I do indeed dress in drag on rare occasions.

Once in a blue moon I get the urge to wear one of my handmade costume dresses, aside from that I've dressed "girly" for a family function... like twice in 2009.
I'm kind of into practical fashion - I'm fond of a full short skirt/dress line, but dressing feminine right now tends to just raise questions/confusion/false hope for some of my family members, so I try not to make life harder on them and just stick to dressing like one gender.
