Do you ever find yourself wondering if it’s okay to crossdress? Do you feel weighed down by society’s judgment and expectations?
Well, it’s time to shed that weight and liberate yourself! Let’s talk about why crossdressing is absolutely okay, and why you should embrace it without any guilt.
1. Self-Expression Matters
As humans, expressing ourselves is a basic core need.
Crossdressing is just one way to showcase your personality, tastes, and preferences through clothing. It’s an ideal outlet for creativity and individuality.
2. Fashion Has No Gender
Who says certain clothes are meant only for specific genders?
Clothes don’t have an inherent gender; they are pieces of fabric that can be enjoyed by anyone. So, wear what makes you feel confident and fabulous!
3. Breaking Free from Gender Norms
Crossdressing challenges outdated gender norms. It’s time to break free from rigid ideas of what’s “appropriate” to wear.
Crossdressing allows you to take a stand against society’s expectations and encourages others to do the same.
4. It’s Not Harmful
Let’s be clear – crossdressing is harmless. As long as you’re not hurting anyone, there’s no reason to feel bad about it.
Feeling guilty about expressing yourself through clothing is unnecessary and unproductive.
In conclusion
Being true to yourself is a beautiful thing, and it sets an example for others to do the same.
So, let go of the guilt, and embrace your fabulous, feminine side!

Guilt and shame dominated over the multitudes of feelings crossdressing gave me while growing up. I’m a straight guy, but I’ve always adored girly and guy things. It’s a hard duality to handle when your single parent is a militant, chauvinistic manly man.
For years and years I dressed up in secret–always purging my wardrobe when a new woman joined my life. Hiding that side of me just made me want to stop all of it all together. Especially when I got a little older and had accumulated lots of roommates.
Luckily for me, three of my roommates are really good childhood friends — when I had a girlfriend discover my CD hobby, they made me very comfortable. They are my best friends, and not one of them changed their opinion of me when I explained everything. In fact, I was so relieved by their acceptance that I just explained it to the majority of my friend group. Everyone was cool with it. Several of my female friends made it easy to go out and shop at thrift stores and try on clothing and shoes at the malls. My newest girlfriend is super supportive and encouraging about it. We go out once a week, usually.
At this stage of my life, I’ve decided that I am proud of who I am. I’m a fun person while in both genders and it’s far easier being relaxed than afraid. Because of this confidence, I’ve received more flirting from women, friendship from really interesting people, a support system that could hold my world, and most importantly: peace of mind while I further explore both sides of my interests.
You are so lucky and you look lovely.
Thank you so much!
Penelope, you great in that photo , and its wonderful your girlfriend is a supporter.I’am from the prehistoric era and my lovely wife will not support my cross dressing, so I must do it in private when I’am alone.But that’s ok .Dee
I’m so sorry to hear that, Dee! Don’t let that bring you down though. We all deserve a shot at being comfortable in our own skin.
Wow Penelope, you are pretty! I am also fortunate and have a supportive girl friend. I however, am not out to any close friends/family. I have other CD friends and that is great. This is a pic of me from our Red Dress Valentines dance.
I used to keep a tight clamp on it but with therapy and hrt I have been living as a woman for the last 6 months. In another 6 I will be changing my name and never looking back. It was a long war and there battles yet to win, but I know they can be won. I am an outspoken advocate on several LGBT sites and will fight for our rights for as long as I am living.
I do feel guilty when I dress cuz of all the negative reactions I get from family and I have to hide it from most of my family and friends. It kills me that I don’t get to dress very often and when I do I have to hide. I’m married and my wife thinks it’s weird. She don’t get why I do it and like cross dressing. I am tired of feeling guilty, sad, unhappy, and having to hide a big part of my life. I actually did finally came out to my mom says month ago. She accepted me for who I am. But still scared and nervous to come out to more people. I really want to come completely out so I can be who I truly am and be happy.
I dress in private and used to feel guilty about dressing. I came to realize that no matter how many times I’ve tried to deny it, the truth of the matter is, this is who I am and that’s not going to change. I’ve accepted who I am and the guilt is less than it was. I met a wonderful man who truly understands me but lives so far away. We’ve met once so far and had a beautiful time. We plan on seeing each other more as the time and distance allows us too. I’m truly lucky to have him in my life.
“Andrea”…Good Luck In Finding Your “Right Mr. Wonderful” !!!

Yes I do actually that this is apart of me and I can’t really do anything on both sides, can only dress really when I’m inside my apt or at night but even that’s a risk…Being in a city with one of the most crime rates in the US is a major deterrent.. If I lived in a town however that would be totally different and would transition in a heartbeat. So I have 2 routes, be myself above all else, with the risk of getting hurt or worse via statistics which are more then true or dont transition and be miserable for the rest of my life. But regardless of my situation, I’m glad that there are girls out there that are doing it and will do it.
This is different for most girls out there, and I seek no sympathy or pity. It is what it is. But yes I do feel guilty, for being what I am if I could change tbh I would, but you can’t change who you are, even if you say you can for trans people anyway and or CDs aswell. >.> I never post on here nor look at the comments, but I wanted to answer this question honestly, never get this type of question and if I see it on various website forums being a lurker there is always blacklash for the minority D;<. If any one responds, I won't see it since, I clicked notification off. I think its cool you dont have to register to answer questions. Well..back to checking my email, and waiting for the next article of yours ^_<

Dear Ms Sorella,
this sissy has spent the last 50+ years trying to get the courage to come out of the closet. Recently, this sissy has met a wonderfully understanding Woman, and has accompanied Her on several outings, dressed in feminine clothes and shoes, carrying a purse. Have not applied any makeup, yet, but that is next!!
So thrilling!!
Most gratefully,
Your obedient,
Carol “sissyriki” Sewell
Guilty? No,but then again, I never felt guilty. I have nothing to be guilty for. I travel most all of ConUS and have delivered virtually in every state. If someone feels uncomfortable with my lifestyle, they can leave at any time. But I ain’t leaving til my business is concluded.
