My response to cross dressing

I have seen on here some resentful remarks about crossdressing, not just from males as I would expect, but from females as well. To be fair men have had to accept women cross dressing for decades now and that is supposed to be totally OK seeing women living in jeans, leggings, shorts, sports trousers, joggers etc. Personally I grew up seeing women wearing skirts and dresses when they went out shopping, to a pub restaurant or cafe and just in ordinary everyday life. They looked great then and I always loved those clothes which is why I now prefer to dress in skirts and dresses myself. I love feeling the flowing materials (nothing sexual) and wearing the very kind of clothes that I wish today`s women would wear themselves. Give me a chiffon skirt or dress and a lovely lacey petticoat (waist slip or full slip) and I feel totally happy and more natural than ever.

Free choice for anyone to do whatever and wear whatever they like so long as it’s not hurting anyone.

However, in my own relationships I wouldn’t tolerate a man who cross dressed, or wanted to go about as a woman. I’m not enabling a man in his fetishes.

Each to their own, but it’s a hard no from me.

"Resentful" 😁

I'm not going to dress according to anyone else's ideas of how I should dress.

You do you, though. Enjoy.

I don’t think @manpretty is going to get the screenshots he wants. Lol

Cool story bro.

Naunet · 07/06/2026 17:15

How curious my reply was deleted, I must have touched a nerve. The male ego is so painfully fragile.

trendysetter · 07/06/2026 17:23

If only we could woman as well as you woman OP.

We don't exist just to be pretty little dolls for men though.

littleburn · 07/06/2026 17:26

Clothes are just clothes. I think most women here are more concerned with men who think wearing an item of clothing makes them change sex.

lol you tit

bathofbeans · 07/06/2026 17:46

I don't know a single solitary woman that wears a 'lacy petticoat, waist or full slip'.

What even is that? Sounds Victorian. Just like your stance.

AImportantMermaid · 07/06/2026 17:48

I’m having spaghetti bolognese for dinner, even though it’s Sunday 😊

Shedmistress · 07/06/2026 17:51

I have the flu or something similar and my OH is in recovery after a biopsy so I just did potatoes, onions and carrot in the remoska for lunch and had that with some gravy for lunch. It was bloody gorgeous.

HarrietofFire · 07/06/2026 17:52

We had roast dinner yesterday and we’re having the leftovers today. On a Sunday.

amylou8 · 07/06/2026 17:53

Ok Dave, enjoy your chiffon dresses and petticoats dear.

Clothes are just clothes. Anyone can wear them.

its not possible to “cross dress”
because no item of clothing belongs to a single sex.

Oh the OP is most definitely a ‘cross dresser’ in the traditional meaning of the term. 😂😂😂

So not a fetish, but you fancied coming onto a female-oriented site and describe how your cross-dressing makes you feel?

HenriettaSwanLeavitt · 07/06/2026 17:59

Bacon sarnies and a bottle of cider for us 😋(Apologies to vegetarians, vegans, those who don't eat pork and teetotallers)

BiologicalRobot · 07/06/2026 17:59

And..?

I don't understand the point of your post. What are you after, and why can't you achieve whatever it is in real life?

Devontownie · 07/06/2026 18:02

Dress how you like, when and where you like. And I hope you feel you can with confidence and are happy with where you are in life.

Just don't come Into any of our women only spaces Pre Op. Don't join a woman only sports team , And don't ever tell a woman, you know how hard it is to be a woman.....😁
