Why do I feel this way when I Crossdress

When I crossdress I get really nervous and my heart just starts pounding very quickly. My heart pounds quickly that I cant even move and its like this until I take my clothes off and I feel really excited purified.

Well,

I can only speak for myself of course, but when I was younger when I dressed as a girl I was very excited at first and then I would calm down and it just felt right. I would get very depressed when it was time to take off the clothes or when I allowed on of my parents to see me dressed (usually mom).

Hi.

I think your reaction is natural.

When I dress as Sarah it is a ritual whereby I transform my self from my male persona to my female one.

If I have done something I am proud of during the day I will reward myself with this ritual.

It comprises of me getting all my things together, clothes, shoes etc and being in the bathroom for an hour or so; and yes my partner does comment that I take longer than she does.

Then I shave twice, shower and if necessary I will shave my legs to cut down the small growth I have had since last time.

I will then adorn myself with my female clothes and put on my make-up.

I step into the shower as me, a mixed up male, and step out as a confident and happy female.

Whats not to be excited about:-)

Enjoy whatever feelings you have.

Lots of hugzzzzzzz,

Sarah

Hun its a natural reaction that we all have when we start out. i felt that way for about the first year that i dressed. after i got over the excitement,just like Isabella said, it felt so very right.

Hi Alice,

Some people have covered it. It's a mix of emotions, getting a chance to get closer to how you have felt inside almost every moment of your life. I'm sure there is some sexual arousal involved, especially since like most of us, you have looked from afar at all there is and can be to wear, and now you're actually getting your chance. And often, since it can only be done surreptitiously (in secret), that usually means not very often, so when you can, that in itself can heighten the emotions.

In some ways, I suppose, it's like a young girl dressing up in a wedding dress or Mom's big girl clothes, imagining the woman they will be growing into and all the times ahead. We have to grab those moments when we can.

However, as you do it more, and feel more comfortable with yourself, that's when you should really begin to explore your emotions and yourself for what you exactly want. Is the thrill enough? Or do you want to get beyond that and just feel comfortable and begin doing things that often appear normal, just enjoying the whole experience. I just hung out laundry on an out side line and will be vacuuming parts of the house, dressed in a skirt, tank, heeled sandals, wig, etc. That's a wonderful feeling in itself, just to be doing normal everyday things.

Whatever makes you feel good about yourself as long as you don't hurt yourself (and try not to hurt others).

      I want to hold back on this one until more solid information comes out.  The defendant is claiming it was accidental, but the Trans side is demanding a hate crime scenario which an accident would preclude.  Pardon the phrase, but as I read this folks are jumping the gun here.

      Well, here's the big questions:  What does it mean to be masculine?  What does it mean to be a woman?    I've been around a lot of rule-bending in those areas.  There's all sorts of "traditional" views about what men and women do.  Men work on mechanical things, defend/protect, earn a living, play rough sports, etc.  Women cook and clean, are gentle and nurturing, value aesthetics over function, etc.   Yet, my very "masculine" industrial-manager husband cooks just as well as any Betty Crocker wannabe, and tells the bedtime stories that are most in-demand by the kids.  My GF, who is surely "ALL Girl" is a highly skilled mechanic, a street racer, was busily laying concrete while 6 months pregnant, and practices kenjutsu (Japanese sword fighting skills).  And me?  I'm AFAB but I'm infertile and I feel like I should have had a male body...yet I possess very little in the way of "manly" skills or desire to acquire them.  I'm in my boy form these days, but pretty much useless for accomplishing "boy stuff."     I think my family blew those definitions out of the water.  Yet, somehow our family structure is also religiously patriarchal....and happily so!  It'll bend your brain to try to figure that one out.    I'd say its just important to be you, do what you do best, and stick your tongue out at anybody who doesn't like it.

      Welcome to the board gizgizgizzie! I sure can understand what dysphoria feels like. I found it stayed in my head during nearly all waking hours. Although, sometimes held in a little deeper. But it was triggered easily. I hope you can find that place you feel comfortable with yourself. This is a good place to find help as you traverse your journey.   Jennifer

      hi everyone, my name is giz (or gizzie), i use all prns but i prefer they/it and i just found out abt this place pretty recently !! im really excited to find community among other trans people from so many walks of life !! in my personal life, i do have trans/queer friends but its not easy to navigate that without coming out all willy nilly (and i can't come out to my family, pretty much ever) so this is a pretty good place for me to get to know people and make new friends !!   i also have this weird dysphoria issue that i feel like everyone (and society at large lol) is attaching me to categories and boxes that don't really fit me (obviously this is to do with my agab) so being here without that presentation is also really helpful !!   i also hope to be able to start and share my transitions goals and things like that (just getting my body to a more androgynous look) !!   thanks for reading, and i hope to see more of y'all soon !!

      Well, my friends are out publicly. Openly transgender, and on HRT.  I agree that the survival of all of us is at stake.  But I think there are threats greater and more dangerous than those faced exclusively by LGBTQ folks.   Rising prices. Unaffordable food.  EPA strangling transportation and energy.  Needless foreign wars that put us at risk of literal nuclear annihilation.  A government that wants to tax us, track us, and control every aspect of our lives...including using us as guinea pigs for their medical experiments.     Trump is no savior.  Neither is the Republican party.  But I believe that a vote for Democrats in the federal government is for sure a vote for globalism and what follows it.  War, famine, plague, slavery, and death don't care if we're trans or cis.

      People who are out publicly, and openly transgender, maybe on HRT, having changed names and gender, have a lot to lose if anti-trans politicians take power.  They have openly called for our eradication, and promise to do everything they can to accomplish this.  (again, 2025) For someone in this position the election is about our survival.  It's foolish to delude ourselves into thinking "Oh, they don't really mean that.  It's all for show," or, "There's other more important things to concern ourselves with." Maybe for some people the other things take priority.  But if you have skin in the game, things look different.

      If that happens, a lot of things I don't want to see might also be codified into law.  And some things that shouldn't be law might not get repealed.  To me, progress in one area isn't worth the price we'd have to pay in several other areas.     For me, voting on LGBTQ issues always ends up as an "out of the frying pan, but into the fire" sort of event.

      Trying out a new wig. Got my reading glasses on. I've also got dark roots now - first time in years.

      Thea, your post made me think of a comic named Chloe Petts whom I saw recently on Hannah Gadsby's Gender Agenda comedy special on Netflix. She is a cisgender masculine lesbian. She is brilliant and so funny. I was intrigued by her identification - specifically masculine, not butch. And it seems to me there is a difference.

      Today I had a dr appt. When I checked in, I was asked my surname, which I gave. Apparently there were two patients with appointments at that time with that same surname. The receptionist asked, "Are you (my legal name which is feminine) or Paul?" I got such a kick out of it not being assumed I had the feminine name.
