Would you date a man who cross dressed?

[Supernova23]

Compatible in most ways but they admitted from the beginning they cross dressed. Would you?

No

Absolutely not

Nope, absolute turn off. Makes my skin crawl.

No

Wouldn’t bother me. My ex was partial, I’m quite open minded

Wouldn't bother me. Knowing from the offset means there's no lies and hiding.

No not for me at all if dating but I have nothing against anyone who cross dresses.

I’m Scottish and I won’t even date a man is a kilt.

100% no.

Absolutely not.

When I was younger i might have said yeah, don't care as doesn't come into my life. Inow think that was probably massively naive and having seen EI arc it'd be an absolute no.

Yes, wouldn't put me off. I like feminine presenting men. They've got to own it though, as a man, & not think it makes them a woman. In my defence, I grew up worshipping Bowie, David Sylvian, Nick Rhodes, Marilyn (<-- favorite) etc.

Nope - if men want to cross dress that’s up to them (so long as they don’t think it makes them an actual woman) but it would give me the massive ick

David Sylvian was so beautiful. Made up, but still very much a man and not a cross dresser.
Just looked him up... still gorgeous!

No.

Its a no from me

Lol no!

I still remember reading a list somewhere (Smash Hits ? ) of his makeup. Mostly Clinique, the lipgloss was called Raspberry something (menopausal, I will remember the exact name at about three in the morning). He wore the heavy duty full coverage foundation. I can’t believe this has stuck in my head, but by coincidence I was listening to Quiet Life last night.
I think all of us who were teens in the eighties, or late seventies, don’t bat an eyelid at men in eyeliner or a fancy outfit. I feel sad for the rigid gender boxes teenagers today have, I didn’t see that coming at all.

Strong signal for autogynephilia so that’s a no from me.

No, I was in a very short term relationship with someone who admitted from the start that they crossed dressed. To be honest it wouldn’t have even got that far had he not have been a really good ONS from a party about a decade before, and then our paths crossed again and I’d always held a bit of a torch for him.

When he told me I was like umm ok, didn’t really know how to respond but I certainly didn’t find it attractive, and somewhat at odds with the hulking, rugged, fit as fuck builder that he was. I made it clear from the moment he told me that I didn’t want to know any details or have any involvement in that side of his life.

But of course he insisted on telling me details, including how he’d get dressed up then go out in public and have a wank down the side of Tesco's in his local town. That was the point at which I knew there was definitely no future. I find the whole thing fucking weird. He said he had ‘vagina envy’.

I'm bi sexual but I like my women to look like women and men to look like men so it's a no from me

OP are you the same person that asked about men who like porn involving pre-op trans women? (that was removed a few days ago).

In any case, massive turn off. Been there, done that.

Interesting what some people are writing about paraphilia. I'd not heard about that before and it certainly matches my experience of it.

My ex definitely had other kinks. The cross dressing was always about fetish, never about wanting to be a woman in real life.

The ever escalating drug use to try and instigate this type of sex was damaging. It was also, the only relationship where I have felt at risk of harm. Coercive control from the moment we moved in together. A collection of godawful knives.

A lesson in my younger years never to be repeated.

I don't think it would bother me in itself if he was straight but it's what it represents - where does that end?

Hell would freeze over first.

No.

My ex wanted to try on my dress, it did fit him but I wasn't comfortable with him in it.

He also measured our calves to see whose were the slimmest. His were!

I wasn't with him long enough for anything else. Not for me.
