Period Covered: 9/9/98-2/21/99
Here are the results from the first survey. This is NOT intended to be a scientific, accurate study! It was done for curiosity and fun and ONLY relates to those who visited my site and took the time to answer some questions I had in my head! Since I feel that publishing these results will now taint the original survey, I have created a new one! I ask that you now fill that one out. Please note that not everyone answered all the questions and some comments, such as requests for certain pictures or opinions on page loading times, increasing thumbnail sizes and such are no longer valid, as changes affecting these comments were done all along the survey's time span, specifically to address these problems, complaints or requests. Thanks again for taking the time. The results from 90 surveys, turned out better than I expected, I hope you will agree!

Most gave female persona names here

3) What do you think of the site, any changes you would like to see made?
You overwhelm me with such nice comments here! Thank you so much! I especially like the fact that my site is getting recognized through these comments and my e-mails, currently averaging 5 to 15 per day, as one of the best CD sites on the net!! Thank you all!
I enjoyed your site very much but it is a little too graphics intensive (pages are slow to load).
I think that it is a great site! Love to see more pictures of you!
Love your pix, any chance of some close-ups of your feet and heels?
Better photography perhaps...(11/15/99)
I am bit overwhelmed. You do have your act and dressing together. Very impressive
Beautiful! :)
Great site - No suggestions
Love the site. Is a great resource. Just found your page but I'll be back often.
I’d like some close-ups of your eyes. Their gorgeous and your legs are indescribable
A very nice site.
A very nice looking site. Only negative and that’s just a minor one is the backgrounds make loading a bit slow.
Thanks for the links to some great, non-nudity, but very feminine sites.
Nice site
Jenelle, I haven’t looked at everything yet, it looks good so far!
I liked your site and could see we have a great deal in common.
You’re doing very well
I love it. I love the sexy clothes and long legs. It's great.
You have made a very interesting site and I enjoy it to look about it from time to time..
Excellent
I like it.
You look wonderful...I love the way you use your pictures for the background...I would love to have you teach me how...
Very nicely done. Your pictures are quite arousing to me, despite my heterosexual leanings.
Great, need more pictures and stories!
You look great don't change anything
Larger thumb nails and more clear pictures
Your bio is so sad. I'm sorry your life isn't a perfect fem one. But still, I want to read more about you. Are you going to add to your bio?
A very nice site. You are very beautiful and so very feminine. Thanks for sharing.
I love your background pictures.
I like it the way it is.
I would love to see some swim suit or lingerie photos! You're very beautiful
Perhaps more and better quality lingerie pages
Jenelle, I just love this site! It's really cool! Don't change a thing, besides updating your pictures (you have an amazing wardrobe. I'm jealous!)
It’s very nice
NICE
Nice Lots of Fem links
Excellent
It’s already perfect. I would have to think about the changes.
Good BIO, slightly larger thumbnails.
You’re beautiful!
Love everything...no changes
Great! xx
To tell you the truth this was the first time -- I was impressed.
I think it is a lovely site and you have done a great job with it.
First time I've visited. Very sexy and very lady-like. I especially like the backgrounds.
Looks very nice!!!
Very nice site
I just enjoy it like it is.
One of the best CD sites on the net. Keep it classy, feminine and clean I just love what you've done with your site.
Very nice. Lots of cooool stuff. Higher res. Pics
You really look great, classy and sexy at the same time, That is the look I personally love.
I think you look great, in fact I would love to be there with you and help you get dressed
This site is wonderful and can't think of any changes that you can do to make it any better.
Love it Just found it and I will return
Well thought out site, thumbnails are a wee bit too small
Everything is so beautiful, including the owner. Congratulations.
I think this is one of the better sites on the web with our interests in mind.
It's great just as it is
I spend a great majority of my time now perfecting an imagine that would reflect a positive image as a woman.
I think its just fine
IT IS GREAT
I like your site and think it has a lot of useful info for CD/TG people.
The only things I'd REALLY love to see added to someone's page are these:
I've seen numerous hints, tips, tricks, etc. for feminization. I've seen both repetitive and new (novel) approaches to fashion, make-up, etc. What I'd love to see someone do is follow every possible link to every TG site. (I know--it'd take forever) and re-print (withpermission) or link to the best of the best of these. I.E.: Take the MOST useful information and consolidate it all in one place. That would be the most popular page on the net!
I think your site is very, very good! The only thing I'd like to see changed would be for you to take it to a different place. GeoCities is slow and annoying with their pop-up advertising. I tend to avoid GeoCities sites.
Like your page. I have a similar bio like yours. I can’t think of any change to make.
Enjoy the site for overall content!
It looks good to me. I do have an interest in how SO’s handle this sort of thing
A fantastic site. Great reference material and fab pictures
4) Ideas for future articles/additions to this site?
Lots of wonderful ideas and they WILL be incorporated, if they haven't been already!
1. I would like to know why we cross dress. I started as a young boy 8 or 9 but god only knows why I have been attracted to it ever since. Why not address that

5) What is your genetic sex?
I know I get a lot more "hits" by real women but those that taken the survey, are very few. How 'bout some suggestions for questions? Ladies....?
Male xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Female xxx
6) How do you view cross-dressing?
Like I am expressing something inside of me, when dressed, I feel relaxed, comfortable.
Usually with my eyes though occasionally I admit to using my third leg
For better or worse it's a part of me.
I think a person should dress, as he/she likes. My girlfriend wears my T-shirts, jackets, shirts and muscle-T’s (as a dress) and no one says a word, it should be the same for a guy.
It feels great and sexy to have a pair of pantyhose caressing your legs and the feel of a bra under a blouse bouncing ever so slightly is wonderful
As a normal, ordinary thing.
I love cross-dressing; I am closeted and only cross dress in my home on my days off.
I have gone out numerous times but only on Halloween.
I view it as a real gift. I get to look at life from both sides so to speak.
I am transgendered so I think you know my views. Congratulations for coming out. I get out dressed occasionally and they are my most precious moments.
Consider being Trans, a gift from God.
I have been CD-ing for 20 yrs. (I'm 38 y.o. now), and I'm loving it more than ever!!
I enjoy dressing and the way I feel, I just wish my wife could accept me in this role.
I love it! Do it as much as I can.
As an essential part of my life
On the www
I think it is normal for a man to want to dress like a woman
I'd love to have the courage to do it myself. I think it would be so cool to look like a woman
Very relaxing and satisfying
As beautiful art
Perfectly acceptable to me.
Very positively. My feminine self is definitely my better self, although also very closeted.
I adore it
I am a transsexual, so I'm all for it.
I think it is ok. I just wish it was ok with the rest of society.
I love it! I participate every chance I get!
As a vital part of who I am.
I enjoy it
I love cross-dressing, I’ve been dressing since I was five years old!
Love it xxx
BRILLIANT
Its fun, exciting, and a turn on
It's something I really enjoy doing
I think CD’s are courageous and my kind of people. I adore you guys. (GG)
Seems like a perfectly natural thing to do.
The most erotic thing I do
I am a part time CD - wish I was as pretty as you are
I view cross-dressing as a chosen way of life, which I enjoy with all others who enjoy it.
As a tension release - getting away from everyday pressure
With a deep passion
I love cross-dressing and wish I could do it more often. I love anyone who does it and wants to improve.
I enjoy cross-dressing myself and enjoy conversing with attractive CDs.
Daily
A necessity
Let me look just once more in the mirror... lovely...Thanks for asking
I love dressing up and being a woman.
Best thing anyone could do. I love everything feminine, silky and lacy. Sounds like a pervert but I am 100% normal! I see absolutely nothing wrong with cross dressing. Maybe this world would be a far better place if more people were "Trans-dress types." Less violence and more love. I'm all for cross-dressing
T has always been part of my life. I am just now accepting that it is me and that it is ok.
I've been a cross dresser even before I knew it had a name or others did it.
I am hooked!
I never knew how many other men had the same desires as me. We all started out at about the same age and had to keep it as our very own secret. Damn, sure wish I could go back and do things differently. God made us all and gave us the ability to make decisions in regard to our life styles. I love all TG people.
I have dealt with this in my own life and agree that cross-dressing for the heterosexual male is real. I believe that the roles we play from our born genetic sex is by acceptance of the world and not who we are as individuals. If the cloths and gestures make who we are at home and in public, then can anyone be who they are even if they are un -harmful to others?
I feel that support groups are a waste. Just do whatever makes you feel good and the feel with others (within reason)
Coming to accept it as something that's "ok", it's NOT a bad thing!
Very favorably. I like it to be done with sincerity, rather than the caricature that some girls become.
Adore it
Since I am a cross dresser, I view it in that we are very unappreciated by society today. Our way of expressing our feminine selves is not as accepted as the gay/lesbian community is. We need strong responses to the media who view us in an unfavorable light
I love to dress in silky sexy clothes
open mind / participate
I see nothing wrong with cross-dressing. In fact I love wearing women’s clothes.
LOVE IT
I am transsexual
Cross-dressing in and of itself is something that has existed for centuries and always will as long as people roam the planet, I think. Personally, I'm a post-op TG person, so MY views on simply cross-dressing may not be those of the average person who only dresses as a female. I just think a person is a person and that there is nothing wrong with wanting to express yourself.
I think its okay if you can pass and not insult female gender.
I view cross dressing as a way to express the true us and we should not be treated by what we have on the outside.
A form of personal expression/life style misunderstood by most...Enjoyed/necessary for more of us than people would realize. In general, a mystery for most as to the causes, need, etc. as well as the satisfaction and benefits to one's inner self.
I find it natural and normal for me, but have to function in a narrow-minded world
It is really a part of me
7) Do you have any issues you would like brought up?
Yes how to accept yourself. Then how to be more womanly need a x-dressing friend to help me blossom
Telling kids and their reactions.
Are you on HRT? I have been for about a year.
Why is there no transgender stores, etc. in Phoenix, Arizona or am I just not looking in the right sites?
The media (TV, movies, and talk shows) must begin to portray us as the normal everyday people that we are.
How fun it is to wear lingerie and dresses
Are there any local lawyers who could represent CD’s if there were any problems with someone harassing a CD. I know this is a touchy subject but if this were the case then some CD’s would keep it to their selves rather than risk the publicity.
Consequences of hormones
We are not gay! I don't like being grouped with the gay community. We need our own identity! The media always portrays us as sick. That has to stop also.
Wives and SO's need to let go of this identity issue. It seems that they feel a cross dressing mate has stepped into their world where they do not belong. This was common with males when women started to invade the male world in playing a greater role in relationships at home and in public. I understand why, but how did the women get acceptance and men do not. Although the public isn't ready for cross-dressing males, that does affect the family and male communities. I have heard more heterosexual males say they need to know by site, if a person is female or male. Of course this is a Homo fear that most males carry with them all of their lives. I also have seen in my own relationship with my wife that she feels this other person I am, is like cheating on her, doesn't want to be looking less of a women then I, and that I appreciate my fem side more then her. We are working on this.
Yes. When I'm out on outings, some of the places I go to, many of the girls project a negative imagine of a woman, by dressing horribly, wearing ill fitting clothing, clothing that doesn't reflect their age, dressing that shows them to have no respect for womanhood.
No, none that hasn't been done to death already.
Clothes that fit a plus size person. It’s hard to find clothes that fit in my metropolitan area.
Yes, I am a widower, and am facing the issue of finding a new life partner one-day, and am anxious about the impact of my dressing on any serious relationship and when it is appropriate to tell her.
8) Do you know a transgendered person?
Yes xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
No xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
9) If you know of one, how is that person (or you), doing with it? Do you think it's all right (accepting it) or are you completely turned off by it?
I feel that they are who they are and I accept them for what is inside, not what is seen.
I struggle with it at times but I adore my femininity.
I think we should look at ourselves before we judge others and we would find that maybe we are not so different after all. Most people have a closet, what's in theirs.
I've known Jessica for almost 4 years and didn't find out until last month that she wasn’t a "real" girl. Know what? I don't care. She's still the sweetest, most caring person I've ever met. If I had a choice, I'd be more than proud to marry her. Sadly, I don’t think that I can. I'm not ashamed to say I love her.
I am turned on by the idea of having a feminine body. I am a male and will always be one but just the idea of being feminine is a turn on.
I'm doing great with it now, thanks to a very dear friend who is now my business partner. Others run the spectrum from positive to negative.
I view myself as a Lesbian CD!!
I have no problem with this at all, I think the world would be dull if all of us were carbon copies of everyone else.
I'm still very closeted but I accept myself, and am working on the tough climb out of the closet.
My female girlfriend went from kind of unsure to really loving it
Everyone should be "that way." (from a GG)
Some of the people I know pass very well and I find them attractive, but not the ones who don't
I love it, everybody should try it once. It will set you free.
Some transgendered girls are more fem than some genetic girls.
My wife accepts it, and does participate with me some of the time. She has been to some support group meetings with me.
I'm a cross dresser with a very understanding wife.
I love it!! I've been living as a woman full-time since August.
Fine! So are most of my friends. And my wife loves it.
ACCEPT 100%
I accept it but most of the people I know, don't
Yes I know one CD who is dressing when he can but will not go public out of fear of reprisals.
I would like to not be transgendered -- life would be easier, and at times I would be happier.
Fully accepted
You mean CD ing? I feel every one should do it
I enjoy being with transgendered individuals
I have a gay friend who I admire and would never badmouth him for his way-of-life.
The people I know are both gay and straight. I don't have any problems accepting them as they are.
Very accepting of myself, plus my wife loves it.
Don’t worry too much about others, just be yourself. Life is too short! Enjoy yourself now, rather than find it’s too late
It’s cool
I am working with it. I have been in a personal closet for a very long time. It was dark in there, and it's very bright outside. My eyes are taking some time to adjust. If we, as a society that do not bend with the changing attitudes of today’s issues, then we are doomed to break. Yes I do accept the changes of the different lifestyles as it relates to today’s world.
Both of us accept ourselves, feel quite comfortable with who we are and have been able to deal with horrible comments that have been made towards us...
The transgendered person is me. I just wish I had the balls to come out of the closet and live full time as a woman.
ALRIGHT
I'm doing fine with my sexuality. I accepted that I was transgendered at age 14 and began taking steps to become female at age 17. I actually had the SRS at age 21 and have been totally happy and at ease since. My life is wonderful.
Family was hesitant to accept it, but eventually came to terms with it and now it's as if I'd been born a girl. I don't even know anyone anymore who knew me when I was a male.
I know a handful. They seem to be doing okay.
I think cross-dressers have the potential to be the most understanding, as they migrate back and forth, and try to live in both worlds.
It, is really cool

Leather is much richer feeling than vinyl. All of my purses are leather. My favorite is multicolored browns and wine. I have a black one to match two of my black suits. I also have a ladies wallet.
I favor those small clutch purses that you don't have worry about in a fracas with police.
Depends upon the outfit that I am wearing at the time, I try to color-coordinate my accessories...
A black sequined purse that I carry to parties.
15) Is there something special about it?
It was my first present that was not something made for a man
Looks great and lots of pockets and such to keep everything I need when I'm out and around.
Long strap and looks so feminine next to my clothes
It is small enough to be a carry bag and it also has a hidden shoulder strap.
It was my 1st.
Just that they are feminine. xx
It’s mine
Large enough to hold all my junk but not to big
I have a lot of good memories that go with my purses. Especially the black leather one. (GG)
Gold chain pink lining
My first
The gold strap
The smell of leather
I love shinny leather and PVC
It's very glamorous
I like how the inside is organized
Functional, not flashy
Clutch style with a large flap, and the thinnest spaghetti shoulder strap. It's mine and I could not leave home without it.
My wife gave it to me as a gift on my first outing.
Nothing special, I find having one on outings helps and I don't have to run to the vehicle for anything
It is small and has thin shoulder straps
Only that it is practical and goes with lots of outfits and holds the things I need comfortably.
I can go out in public in jeans and halter
Its functional and handsome
It is my first, bought while dressed
16) Why did you buy a particular one?
Looked nice/style xxxxxx
Sexy Look x
Impulsive buy x
I didn’t want to attract much attention x

I love purses...Very feminine x
Needed something other than a fanny-pack for our vacation to Las Vegas x
Size, color, style and price x
It was cute x
Various reasons x
A gift to me for being kind to myself x
I loved it and had to have it xx
Just enjoy it.
"Borrowed" it from my wife when she was done with it.
I can wear on my shoulder or just carry it.
The purse itself is elegant, and can accessorize almost any outfit. The strap is long enough to let the purse rest against my hip.
I normally buy a purse based on whether I need one for a specific outfit or occasion as well as its ease of use.
I feel that a leather purse is for the nightlife, not for use with jeans.
Functionality and appearance.
Low price, it packs well when I travel, and I just liked it.

26) How far do you think you will go in your cross dressing / transgendering?
Not any farther than I do today unless I move to a more TG friendly part of the country
Not quite sure at this time. I dress about 33% of the time.
Am considering doing something towards getting real breasts
Time will tell. Sometimes I want to take it all the way, at least once
To the mailbox and back
Dress at home and go to a few bars to meet CD's
Gender Reassignment
I hope to make the support group scene soon.
Not far
Do not know. Would love to spend more time out as Rhonda
All the way someday, I hope
I'm a CD. It's just a facet of who I am. No desire to go on hormones or anything like that.
On hormones, Do not plan on SRS at this point
I'd like to continue to expand my feminine wardrobe and meet someone else who loves to "dress up" femininely and begin a relationship!!
Limited to shaving obvious spots. Walk and voice are passable with some alteration.
I want to pursue it to the fullest of my ability.
As far as I can
I dress at home some of every day, but not out. Just cannot pull it off, though I wish I could.
At home alone
I am probably as far as I will ever go...
I want to go all the way, but I don’t know where to start. I want to see a doctor, etc. but would prefer one known to be sympathetic, any ideas?
Not sure.
Right now, I just wear clothes when I am away from home but would eventually like to pass for a woman; Some day I want to go all out and look totally female.
I would like to go to Dallas or Houston for a transformation, and go out dressed for the weekend
This is the limit
Transition and SRS
Not passable. Wife would not approve of "outside" activities.
It's just something I enjoy at home. Although I did go the "Paradise In The Poconos" this year
I'm not sure. I'm a transsexual trapped in a cross-dresser’s body!
I would like to live full time as a woman, get breast implants but keep my Penis.
Still undecided.... but would love to become more feminine!
Currently I keep it under wraps, deep in the closet. But when my daughter is grown in a few years, I plan to break out of that closet.
I’m considering HRT
Much of my casual clothing is feminine. In cool weather, I wear silk wind suits, all of my shorts, T-shirts and jeans are women’s.
Hopefully for the rest of my life!
I have no idea
Just home
I would like to go lots' more, but...!!!
Not very.
No further than my mailbox
Date a few men
I am in the process of becoming passable and comfortable with myself so I can go out
If I could, all the way. I at least hope in the future to go out and visit a "T" club or two.
As far as I can. I do need help though.
I have had electrolysis and will someday complete it. I will probably have some cosmetic surgery done.
Farther then I have gone so far
I don’t know how far, but sometimes I want to go all the way
Just like going to clubs and walking at night.
I love cross-dressing as often as possible but can't see myself as full time.
I think I have gone as far as I dare. I live in cyberspace and only dress alone a couple of times a month.
If I had been born with the right facial features and size it's hard to tell how far it would have gone
I plan to try and develop my breasts with hormones but I don't think I'll "go all the way".
I've have been cross-dressing all my life and just started to go out dressed up and love it! I see myself wanting more and more. I am addicted to feeling feminine. I know I'm not "TS." I know that I want to go on dates with men.
I have my very own lingerie and wear panties, bra's, garter stockings with either garter belts or open bottom girdles (my favorite) and dress every morning and cover everything with a silk kimono. My wife isn't crazy about my dressing, but so far, allows me to do so. I have been married to the same lovely FF lady for almost 40 years.
I would like to join a support group and make friends with other cross dressers. However, my wife wants to keep this at home due to a fear of I getting caught. I also have the greatest urge to go out in public dressed. I want this so badly for me and not just to see if I pass as a woman. I like who I am and don't need to have outside acceptance through a fake identity.
Partial closet, I go out when out of town with my wife. What support?
When I achieve the look that I feel is 75% passable I want to go out in public at least once just for the exhilarating feeling that it must give you
Just beginning to find out...
Quite possibly to transition.
As far as I can honey
My current thoughts tell me I'll never have SRS, but may transition to a full-time CD later in life.
I would love to live full time dressed as a woman
I've become quite comfortable with who I am now.. I spend a great majority of my time now dressed and going out. I have shopped, been to the movies, shopping malls, and TG. outings, spending entire time dressed. I dress fully while at home, wear panties and nylons or pantyhose daily and keep my toe nails polished, shave regularly to keep my skin feeling smooth, pamper myself as a woman would, using lotions daily and keep my nails trimmed. I would live fully if I wasn't still married..
Just dressing
Some day I will start living full time as a woman and have a boyfriend.
All the way
I am about to take hormones.
I would some day like to go all the way and become a female
To be determined!
Since my wife's passing, I have been progressing rapidly to a point where I am considering hormones, but I really don't know.
I would love to have my beard gone and my ears pierced. Real breasts would be the ultimate

31) How or why did you start? (Short version!)
I just felt a compelling urge to wear panties and bras at a younger age. Now I wear them daily. My wife understands this need and we share what few clothes that I can wear out without worrying about being read.
As a young child, I was just attracted to feminine things.
Started with putting on my mothers dresses as an adolescent
Attracted to lingerie at a young age
Started with a cast off bullet bra back in 1965
I follow "the you are born with it." A lot of gene stuff.
Sexual gratification but it's more about femininity now.
Liked the feel of the nylon and silk next to my body
I started when my adolescence started. I wanted to see how girls clothes felt and looked on me, since they wore different stuff.
Started by trying on my sister's clothes when I was very young (about 3) Started out of curiosity but loved it from the first
With two older sisters growing up (a brother was already out of the house), I was fascinated with their feminine clothes and loved the feel of wearing silky and pretty things (i.e., pantyhose, slips, panties, dresses, etc.)- I wore mainly for sexual gratification!
Real start was in early teens. Went swimming at a girls home, at an earlier age and they loaned me a girls bathing suit to use. I liked it.
Started with trying on my older sister’s clothes. Not sure why exactly, I just had to.
Born this way and love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
With my sisters [3 years older] panties when I was 4 or 5
I liked the way satin and silk felt
I remember trying on a pair of my mothers Hi-heels when I was about 12
I've always felt wrong in my male body. I started at age 5
It's been a part of me since thirteen. I usually dress for the sexual pleasure that it provides.
Early on, I remember being aroused by seeing lingerie advertisements in newspapers, magazines, etc. This led to my first orgasm. Eventually my curiosity led me into my mother's lingerie drawer, and the rest is history
Would like to have a secret life in public and be passable
I've always gotten excited by the thought of wearing women's clothes. I've been trying them on for years.
Played dress up with older neighbor girl. I’m into wigs, have close to 100; all colors and styles, and heavy makeup including false eyelashes
Felt good to have women's panties against my skin, felt good to play with sex toys while dressed, partial acceptance by wife added to a continuing interest
Twin sister dressed me up at a young age...I kept with it
Started wearing my sister's clothes when I was fourteen
Wearing mother's high heels at age of 5 or 6. Earliest feeling of genital arousal.
Mother dressed me as a gypsy girl at age 10 for Halloween. That was it for me, I was hooked.
I have always wanted to be female.
When I was 12, my 1st. boy friend would only feel comfortable having sex if I pretended to be a girl.
Just loved feminine clothes since I was a little girl...er, boy!
I was about 5 and I tried on my aunt’s lipstick. You talk about creating a huge family fuss.
When I was 4 yrs. old, I tried on pantyhose and loved it
Curiosity when I was very young (around 6 years old).
I started trying on my older sister's clothes in my bedroom, or when no one was around, but I've always felt like a girl at heart, even at a young age.
Just popped into my head. Curious always loved girls in sexy clothes and heels
IT STIMULATES ME
I was in a play at school, in a cub scout pack <no girls>; To play the girls, they had us put our neckerchiefs on our heads as kerchiefs making little boys into girls, I liked it
I don't know
Always admired the way girls looked, dressed, and were treated.
Curiosity turned into an almost erotic addiction. I love being a man, but the feel of woman's clothing on me is indescribable
Felt compelled to, loved the excitement of dressing
I just enjoy trying to emulate an attractive woman
I have no earthly clue. I was 4 or 5, saw my mom's slip, and put it on. Since then I've had a desire to be a woman. I can't explain it, wish I could.
I started at about age 7. I fell in love with my aunt’s lingerie and just had to wear it. When I was a bit older, her clothes fit me perfectly and I would dress completely.
Enjoy the feeling and freedom it gives
Don’t know...just seemed right
Just like wearing panties and it went further until I completely became Michelle
Like most stories, I started as a mere child with my mothers clothing
About 13 yrs. old Just like 90% of us. My story is not very different from most others.
I just envied the way a girl looks in a dress and was envious of the attention they get and what their looks and the way they dress can do to a man. I know what a nicely dressed girl can do to me and I like to think I can do the same to others even if I don't actually
Play the total part.
Couldn't resist the temptation to shave my groin, then my legs, and then my body, put on nylons, wear a skirt, the taste of lipstick, plucking my eyebrows, etc.
At first it was Mom's girdle and bra. Then as I got older my three older sisters had everything a cross dresser could ever want garter belts strapless bras, slips, corsets, girdles, petticoats, Pettipants, dresses, wigs, makeup...
While rummaging through my Mommy's dresser at about age seven, I found the most wonderful panty in pink (so femme) satin with a lovely latex liner and it felt soooo good on me. That led over the next sixty years to all kinds of undies. I love full slips and
underwired satin bras.
I can't say why I did the things I did it just felt right. At 4 years of age I role played mothering stuff animals. At 8-9 years old I rather played with Barbie’s then play ball. At 12 or 13 years old I started to dress in my mothers cloths. At 16 to 32 years of age I dressed when I could and ended up losing my first marriage over it. From 32 years old to current age of 40, I'm married again (I told her before we married), own some of my own clothing, and working things out with my wife.
4 or 5 -Mothers stuff
Unsure did a little in my early teens, mostly with my wife since then. I do it because IT FEELS RIGHT
It felt good..
I had no choice. My mother's clothes beckoned me, and when I saw myself in the mirror I knew that I was presenting the true "me".
Don’t know, remember wearing my sisters clothes when I was young
Less than 10 years old, my sister and her friend dressed me as a sister, playing house. Hormones in teens kept me in women’s lingerie.
I started at 14 in grade school, and have been dressing on and off. It started out as a Holloween costume and it grow from there. I had a male friend who helped me.
Started at the age of six. Wore sisters clothing often. By the time I reached my early teens, was dressing fully as often as I could.
Curiosity
The only way my first lover would have sex with me was if I was wearing girls close. This was when I was 13 and he was 16.
When I was little, I saw my dad enjoy the movies and the TV shows of the 1960s.Oh I wished I could be a Hollywood bombshell. Wish today that I could be Mamie Van Dorn.
I started to wear my sister's clothes off and on, plus women have more choices of clothes
Started when I was in my early teens. Stopped for many years and didn't even think about it again until a few years ago. Have purged the wardrobe several times. Have recently found a new acceptance, understanding, and satisfaction level.
Who knows
I really don't know
32) Any additional comments?
I love your look, Jenelle and mourn your heterosexuality
How did you learn so much so fast? You are one smart cookie.
Jessie and I accept each other for who we are I hope your wife can do the same.
Curiosity about my mother’s clothes when I was 12, Once I felt them on I was hooked
I think you are very lovely.
Started by wearing my mom’s clothes when I was very young. Why, in the beginning it just felt good.
I am heterosexual with a strong liking to what women look like.
I have since stopped CD’ing, I recently got married, but am still interested in the clothing.
How did you loose the weight. I am straight but you do have nice legs and you do not look like you are in your late 40's.
Please let me know how you lost the weight.
Good survey
Where do you live?
It and you are very beautiful!!!
I think they (CD's) are very brave to not care what others say
I can relate to the reaction of your wife. Mine had a negative reaction. She watched me like a hawk, said I couldn't be trusted. "What if the neighbors see you?" "Suppose you run into someone you know." Sure sounds like your story, I could relate very well to it. I dropped my weight from 198 to 180 and I'm 6'2" wear size 16 but have long (and I'm told), nice legs. I dress to look nice but not stand out as unusual (I want to blend in and not be identified as male while cross dressing)
I just enjoy looking at beautiful gender-enhanced ladies. Thanks for sharing with us guys, that love you beautiful women.
Immer wieder bin ich erstaunt über den Mut, mit der Amerikaner Amerikanerinnen) sich selbst im Internet darstellen. Für mich selbst würde das doch einen sehr großen persönlichen Schritt der Überwindung erforden. Es ist für viele Interessierte sicherlich eine sehr große Hilfe, wenn sie Menschen mit den gleichen Neigungen oder Problemen finden, die so wie sie selber empfinden. Gut so! Viel Glück für die Zukunft.
Where's the TS section? (GG)
I love the feeling I get when I am Rosie...
I too, am a heterosexual cross-dresser whose wife knows and does not accept. If I may be so bold, and I hope not offensive, I find you to be a stunningly beautiful woman.
I just love female things!
I like "T"'s and I am crazy about true She-men.
My wife has helped on some things, especially, under things
Once you do it you can never stop no matter what, don’t you agree?
I love surveys and I love your pages.
I have enjoyed your site and will bookmark it to check back often. Keep up the good work please.
I love your site....since it's my first time here, I’ll visit more often......it's a definite bookmark.
I have truly discovered a whole world of wonderful people who enjoy cross-dressing also and are very supportive in all aspects of each other's lives.
You look so good. Lots of luck, I want some of what you have
No other than I like your style
I like to do these surveys. I feel like I am communicating with some one else.
I have never been with a man but after viewing Janine and AndiTV and friends, I think I would like to be involved with a TV/CD
Sites' like yours, give people like me, a place to talk and let things out that are held deep inside. Thank you for having the environment to share yourself with others and having the time to listen.
You probably have the best site on the web. It’s done with total class and honesty, which so many sites lack
I only wished this Internet would have been established in younger times, I may have come-out years ago. As it is, I came out last August.
It's taken me many years to accept myself as a whole person.. My fem persona has become the dominate personality in my life today where if I would have started coming out sooner, I would have probably never gotten married, and would have pursued my feminine side more aggressively.
My best to you.
33) Ideas, a question for future surveys?
Great questions, I can't think of anything else.
Hormones and breast growth
How do you feel as a cross dresser, being grouped with the GLBT community? Would you like to be in a group of your own?
Sexual feelings while dressed. Do your desires change when you dress totally en femme?
Maybe one, more in depth
Some personal interviews
More questions in general... and a summary available online of survey results!
I would like to see the tabulated results posted sometime
...And here you are!!
