Clothing on Trasition

[judithlynn]

Hi Girls;
Its interesting that you go for weeks and not notice anything and then Wam it hits you. I have been on Oestrogen only regime for 3.5 years with various development, but this morning when I had to go to one of my luckily few and far between meetings where i had to present the old me. As my therapist says "to cross dress as Male," i discovered that i really do now have female curves (in the buttocks). Well i sort of knew that, but anyway continuing my story. A few months ago I split a pair of trousers in a mens suit from waist band to crotch when presenting on a stage, (very embarrassing), but this morning I had a really important meeting with a Government customer who only knows my former self.

So I get up, showered then head for the wardrobe, get my old still ill fitting suit out (double breasted so it sort hides my 44B bust).  Then go to my old undies draw and pull out a pair of  male underwear (I didn't want to wear panties in case they show through the thin cotton suit, as I only really have sexy frilly ones). Anyway every pair I tried on basically wouldn't  fit over my new increased buttocks!.  They all sort of pulled in the crouch!. Very strange feeling. So i headed for the second bedroom and the full length mirror. Yep I have a S curve back, buttocks and upper thighs.
Maybe not as nice as Jenny Girls and missing the hips, but still very notable even with stretch marks!. Anyone else found this? I ended up with a pair of women's boy shorts.

The last time I "had to" present/cross-dress as male after transitioning to living as female I came close to having an anxiety attack and I haven't done it since. It was only for an hour or so and involved minimal human interaction but it was for something I felt I had no option for at the time. I've since found an alternative solution and haven't been out the door presenting as male again. That was about a year ago.

Sadly, I haven't. I ditched all the male clothing once I went full time and haven't looked back. I have no doubt though they wouldn't fit with the but and thighs I have anyways. Anyways I hope it went well regardless though. Hugs

The last time I tried on my old clothes, they fit really poorly and were extremely uncomfortable and too loose in most place but my chest and butt. Once I started presenting full time, I donated most of my old clothes, but I recently moved and found some more to give away. I'd recommend not bothering in men's clothes, just get butch women's clothing that fits you well if your feel like you need to be masculine that day.

My girlfriend just watched me try to fit in to an old pair of my jeans and thought it rather comical.  They are 38 waist and yet they would not fit comfortably in the butt and hips...hmmm.  She asked me to look in the mirror and whala!  Found the cause   Course, she had it figured out already but wanted to watch the attempt.

Now I wear only my new jeans and work pants as they fit what I have

I wear old male jeans when out hiking with the dog but they feel so weird but can't exactly grasp why....

I also ditched my male clothing when I went full time.. and have never even attempted to wear male clothes since.

I still have a dress I use to love to wear when I was still just a cross dresser, before all hormones. It does not fit at all anyone, I cant get it over my butt. I will never get rid of it, as it was the first dress I ever bought.

I seem to have inherited the same body style as all the women in my family.. We are all big bummed and as my mother calls them child bearing hips. I noticed fat distribution quite early in HRT.

Hi Girls;
Actually when I transitioned before  (just under 30 years ago in the United Kingdom) where I lived full time as a Woman for over 2 years, two Cis girlfriends basically "made" me  ditch my male wardrobe. What actually happened was I had a two very close girlfriends -  Alison and Katie. They both came to stay in my cottage one weekend in Buckinghamshire for the weekend. Over dinner Friday night the girls basically said that as I was now living and working full time  as a woman- it was important to commit totally to being female and ditch  everything male in my wardrobe.. I sort of Um! and Aahd.

Anyway, the following day  whilst I was out at my Beauty Therapist having a full leg and bikini waxed, they literally got together my entire male wardrobe and took everything except one pair of trousers to the charity shop. That night over dinner, they told me what they had done and they pulled out a pair of clothing shears and made me ceremoniously cut the last pair of trousers to shreds. They then made me promise that I was not going to wear any jeans or trousers for a period of one year. (as Katie lived next door to me, she said I will be watching!!) and totally commit to dresses or skirts. I think I lasted about 10 months before I finally succumbed and bought myself some skinny (women's jeans). But it was an expensive exercise as two years on when I was effectively forced to de-transition, I found I had to basically amass another complete wardrobe!

The one thing I found with men's jeans after not wearing them for some time is that they feel a lot heavier than the female version.

[Mariah]

Yep, I know. I noticed that early as well. I swear women's jeans are like paper thin or something. Hugs

I have found most women's clothing to be lighter overall...especially jeans and t-shirts

Same here. I  actually like that fact except in the dead of winter when it is freezing out. Hugs

It's really difficult getting my mens underwear over my thighs and buttocks... and then they just feel weird the whole time I am wearing them. Men's jeans and shorts and shirts that are cut for a man, just look awful on me now. I actually think I look fat in them. Since I'm mostly presenting male until certain things in my life change, my dysphoria seems to be getting worse looking at myself in men's clothing.

I need to Cross-Dress every day. After 6 years of HRT and some help from mom's genes the effects do show and I have to (OK try to) dress around it now. Being a former fatty and having hated my body baggy clothes were always the norm, still are.

But there are those days, those moments of enlightenment when the bolt of lightning hits you and OMG I really am a woman now inside and out. For me it is often when going to present as female and forgetting to put on my bra only to realize a little later the reason I'm not filling out the top of my dress as I remembered I did, No Bra. Or, when in male mode in many tops these days thinking Bra, No Bra, It makes no difference, the girls are the girls, and.... I am a girl. Thanks to nearly daily bra wearing I hardly forget about it in female mode these days

Oh god, that word. It makes me want to tear all my skin off in disgust. Glad I'm far from alone...
