womens attitudes to crossdressing

[calikid]

hi everyone,

i write this as a response to the numerous comments on a variety of posts regarding reaction to any stories where crossdressing is a subject. Firstly i'd like to make it clear that i am male and as such appreciate i may be laying myself bare to the onslaught of comment that is likely to come my way. although male i love to wear "womens clothes". What I would like to know is simply why shouldn't I. can anyone give me one valid reason why I shouldn't? because I have never been able to think of one.
I am happily married with two dds and a beautiful wife , all of whom i love very much. My wife knows all about my dressing and has been with me to a couple of tv gatherings. i told her not long after we got together and she was totally fine with it, we have been married now for 8 yrs. we do not let the children know as they are still quite young.
In all other respects I am very much one of the lads......I like football and beer (but then so do many women!), i work in construction, I teach martial arts, I help with housework , I don't mind ironing(coz i can do it while watching tv!)
I take a size 10 and look pretty good in a skirt and heels, but then so does my wife, its just she can do it whenever she pleases and good for her. its just the injustice and ignorance of society that infuriates me.
I'm curious to know how the rest of women feel about the issue

yy izzy, i'm still filtering the clothing thing. i'm a 'toucher' in clothes shops - it drives dh up the wall. i want to know what stuff feels like. i can't really square that with what i've got in my wardrobe though - itchy, scratchy, sweaty doesn't make it that far. it's a bit 'feel the quality' lol. i don't care how much something is, but i don't want to be thinking about clothes when i wear them. i want them to be physically invisible (to me) and exude (whatever is the desired effect) to everyone else. i can feel their reactions (etc etc) but i don't recognise the whole personal account of how sensuous ordinary clothing is. and using that as a rationale to wanting to wear it. it's just a skirt, not an orgasm on a hanger.

do people honestly put clothes on because they feel swishy? isn't that a bit distracting? the only woman i knew who wore really big swishy skirts did so because she could use them to wipe small children's snot unobtrusively without having to find a hankie. and that ain't sensuous, however you look at it. she had a lot of kids.

oh hello cali. you're back.

just pondering whilst you were away and hoping you were going to come back and discuss. glad you're here. it's hard to have a conversation when the op is at work.

The queue for Eddie is going to stretch way around the block

at work during the day and working on house at night, a mans work is never done!

you can keep yer knitting. i am beyond dreadful at it. i can only cope with one needle at a time.

cali, i'm a bit bemused that you start a thread to talk about cd, and when people start to talk about it, you accuse them of throwing up nonsense. do you not want to talk about it then? that's ok as well. if you want an environemnt where there's less debate and more general (but less critical) acceptance, there are loads of tv forums. i'm sure you're familiar.

feck yeah, at work all day and doing housework all night. a woman's work is never done. still on the stereotypes, then? ah well.

oh yes and supping up our gold olympians. hoping we have one in making, dd entered and won her first ever triathalon recently, very proud dad!

how was the olympics anyway? will watch the reruns later, but caught the badminton saga.

tongue in cheek!

aw, i remember when dd1 and ds1 won their first triathlons. it was vair sweet. dd2 has cerebral palsy and wants to be a paralympic skier. one of the girls she skis with has been selected to ski for the province (she has cp as well) so she's in the right place. i live pretty much in olympic central, you trip over medal winners in the street, lol, so i think it's something they all go through here.

yeah, not banking on a pension from it, but her little face on the podium brought me welling

ds1 won a mountain bike. he was beyond excited. bizarrely it was fecking huge, and so has been in the garage waiting for him to grow. dd1 won, um, i think, a football and a waterbottle. they still wear their t-shirts.

dd1 forgot to change gear and did the entire thing in first. i thought dh was going to have a cardiac arrest shouting at her.

she went out first but decided to bacstroke the swim and kept bumping off the side (bless) and started bike in third................but made it up and won by 4 seconds. there are good genes tho, her grandad nearly made olympics long time ago, so there is hope

dd ran off from the bike still with helmet on and had to go back to take off, very cute though!

lol. two of mine prefer backstroke, v odd. dd1 chose to do her whole distance swim backstroke. she just finds it easier. dd2 swims like a brick though, so no chance of triathlon there. she has two weeks of intensive lessons coming up and if she still can't swim after that i give up. she can either swim or breathe, she can't do both. if she lifts her head, she sinks. i think i'll just get her a snorkel and have done with it.

yeah, breathing is crucial in all forms of sport, esp swimmimg. i also find it useful to breathe during the day myself

I'm having a sort of on agai off again thing with a guy who dabbles with crossdressing.

Dont know how i feel about it really. Initially i founf=d it quite a turn on, he's a very sexual person and the cross dressing was definitely sexual for him. I actually dont buy that its not a sexual thing for some.

I feel a tad uncomfortable now, thinking deeper about it...hence the whole off again thing

..........otherwise i find i start to get dizzy, just b4 i pass out!

wots an agai?

Ive got a sticky N, smartarse.

So, kid, the question that's been on my everyone's lips is do you stuff your bras or make them out of odd remnants of polyester satin?

IME those who dabble with cross dressing either don't dabble for long or make it a lifelong habit, Foosa.

HTH.

Hypocritical, you're using text speak and incorrect wording in every post.

This thread is a wind up. I'm finally taking GoldenFucker's advice from pages ago and not wasting any more of my time.

OP: Just admit it's sexual. Sensual is not that different. I still don't care, just be honest with yourself.

Bye bye, it's been fun ladies!

again.

i think honesty is the issue, foosa. does he recognise it's a sexual thing, or does he just see it as wearing different clothes? it could be either, obv, but it's very common for it to be tied up with sexuality. have you used the beaumont society forums? they have a 'wives/ friends of' section, i think. might help you make your mind up, but if you are wavering, then it sounds as though he's not the right person for you, for whatever reason.
