I’ve observed that many crossdressers and transgender women recognize their gender identity at a young age. For some, it’s an early realization, while for others, it unfolds later in life.
I’m curious about your experience…
When did you first realize you were female or had a feminine side? Was this something you felt as a child, or did it develop over time?
I’d love to hear your story! Feel free share your thoughts in the comments below!

I knew when I was 8 or so. I started
wearing my mom’s clothes and it
felt right. So I v been wearing women’s clothes for a long time. I love to go out in public but I not do it very often because I’m not good at applying make up to be passable as a women. I’m trying but need help from a pro make up artist
Thank you

i was around 7 or when i found my feminine side. i was home alone one day and i went up in the attic and found my mothers wedding gown and i thought how beautiful so i put it on and look at myself in the mirror and said i looked georgous and then my stepfather lived next door and i went in his house and went in his attic and found a couple of his dead wifes old dresses and tried them on and looked beautiful and then i tried makeup and got good at thatand so i felt more womenly then ever so i love dressing as a a women and want to live as a women……..
I’ve known since eight years of age that I was meant to be a girl.

Well when i was 8 i would “raid” my mothers dresser for clothes
hose panties, and heels i was able to wear when i was younger. i like the feel of these things when i wore them. and didn’t know how to feel about it but it seamed right.
had trouble in school and folks took me to “head headshrinkers
and i was unable to tell them i want to wear pretty things some times it was mom,dad me and the doctor to see if i would talk i couldn’t dad was there and one doctor was Mrs crouch (no joke this really made me clam up)
in my teens a got more bold played with it a bit latter in life a went for hormones,rle, ele and had a bad relationship had to move in with dad
he wasn’t for/against Nikki so i stayed low key— for so long purged and was “ok” until dad passed Dealing with losing dad/ dealing with who i am was like ripping off a scab with a strip of duck tape, and have come to accept am a woman and it is ok for me to wear pretty things, want to be taken, wear makeup yes i feel better (wonderful after a shower,shaved legs,lotion stress reliever) and getting over my misgivings of finding a mate. hope i have found them hope this helps out someone it is the reason i relay my tale

i have known I was more feminine then a male should since I was around 10 years old.
I was 5 when I started dressing up as a girl wearing my mom’s clothes, and sometimes clothes borrowed from female cousins. I kinda knew when was wearing them, that was who I was supposed to be. I dressed as a teenager and kept it a secret most my adult life. I told my wife when I first met her. Was 8 years into our relationship I started on hormones to become the woman I was meant to be. Always felt out of place in a male role.
You are beautiful girl keep doing what you so love to do sweetheart good luck and have fun Sandra
well i was born intersex…so i guess i always will channel both male and feminine energies..but i would say when i was about 4 or 5,thats when i realised i was a ‘girl’,and my mom was cool about ,she and my cousins used to actually plait my hair and dress me up as a girl so i guess it was never really a problem..
I was 8 years old when my feminine side was awakened. My friend’s mother used to let us play dress up with her old slips, dresses and shoes. She even applied lovely deep red lip stick. From that moment on I just fell in love with the feel of the silky fabrics. It wasn’t until I was 14 years old that I started to develop my own collection of feminine underwear and stockings. The rest is history and I don’t regret anything about dressing as a woman for a millisecond.
I just love your pictures
