In my latest attempt to lose some weight, I accidentally got a tan. While that’s all well and good, it means that neither my foundation, nor concealer, actually match my skin-tone any more – which puts me on a somewhat frustrating hiatus from dressing up. Grr. I suppose I could go and buy some different makeup, but there seems little point if I’ll only use it once or twice over the next four weeks. So. While I’m waiting for the tan to fade, and acting somewhat vampiric (avoiding the sun… not the other thing :S) I figured I’d dig around […]

When I heard Daisy was starting a blog, I have to admit, I was super excited :D Daisy’s one of my favourite people, and we have similar outlooks about crossdressing in general. On top of that, she definitely has a lot of great advice to give – Take a look at this post in particular. Check it out here – http://daisymuffins.blogspot.com/ EDIT: Looks like Daisy’s blog’s gone. Oh well :/

I am myself a crossdresser, lucky to have an encouraging girlfriend, but I’m still on the closet. My outings are as a male wearing girls clothes, jeans or blouses. I have to say here that I don’t live in such a forward-thinking society, thus, the fear of rejection is greater in comparison to probably where you live. To the point: when I decide to dress-up I always think of the people I’ll meet – my coworkers, or more terribly, family. I think of everyone but myself. If I think I won’t be seeing them that particular day, I go for […]

Ask a Crossdresser: Other People

As I sometimes do, I dress up to work. It’s not a big deal. This day didn’t start off any different than most others. I set my alarm half an hour earlier than usual to make sure I had enough time to get ready. The night before I’d pre-trimmed body hair down so that shaving in the morning would be quicker. I was opting for a jeans + tunic look, and was going to experiment with a lighter make-up look (and let me tell you, those few minutes saved by not having to shave my legs or do my eye-liner VERY […]

A harassment story.

Which way do you dress most of the time? What percentages if you had to estimate? I would say 90% of the time, I’m dressed as a male. Frequency varies a lot. Maybe I’ll go a month without thinking about it or dressing, I’ll get a (horribly itchy) beard going. And then maybe the next month I’ll dress up at work maybe once or twice a week. There’s no real pattern – it’s really just whenever mood and opportunity strike! (I mention opportunity, because some days at work I end up having to interview people, and regardless of mood, I […]

Ask a Crossdresser: How often?

When you’re dressed differently, do you alter your voice? Nope! I very briefly (in terms of minutes, lol) experimented with the idea, but A: I don’t think I could pull it off, and more importantly, B: It’s just not me. I kind of think of the whole crossdressing thing as just a different version of me, but one that’s still authentically me (if that makes any sense) – I don’t have a different personality or voice – it’s not a character or persona, it’s just a different expression of the same thing. Maybe that doesn’t make sense… lol For more […]

It’s odd. The last time I dressed was about two months ago. After that, I just… didn’t. It was weird. I always thought that if the need/desire to dress ever disappeared, it would be great! In reality though, it was much more “Huh. That’s weird. I wonder when it’s going to come back.” What was more peculiar though was the fact that while it was gone, I was kind of worried about it. I don’t really know how to explain it. Anyway. I’M BACK! I could feel the need for it building up over the last week, and today I […]

Happy Easter or whatever!

So when you’re dressed as a man I assume you prefer to be called be the male pronoun of “he” and as a woman you’d prefer “she”? That was something my friend and I weren’t totally sure about at a drag show but I figured that if they were currently dressed as a woman they wanted to be called a “she”. Yeah, when I’m dressed up as a woman, it seems only right to be referred to as she. Being called “he” when I’m dressed up generally means that either I don’t look good, or the possible that the other […]

Ask a Crossdresser: Pronouns

Probably the biggest fear I have as I get older is that at some point I’ll come to a place where I feel like I just won’t look good anymore when I dress up. I’m 30 now, and every so often, when I look back at pictures from ten years ago, I can see how my face has changed. How it’s aged slightly. Where the lines will probably come in, or have started coming in just a bit. It’s not terrible so far (+1 for moisturiser!), but they are there – and in all likelihood, it’ll just get worse. Frickin’ […]

A note on self-acceptance: The sooner, the better

You mentioned going into public and getting respect whether you’re dressed as a woman or man, I was wondering about work and such. Where do you work? So like if you work as a crossdresser then obviously it’s okay at work, but I’m wondering how a different job/co-workers react if one day you come in as a man, and the next as a woman? So I work as a software developer in SF, which is helpful, since it’s probably the most accepting place in the country! It took a long time for me to start dressing at work. We had […]
