Crossdresser Day


Guest Sandy

Recommended Posts

I have heard many ideas over the last couple of years on how to let each other no who is a crossdresser. On the second Friday in November, anyone who is a crossdresser or supports a crossdresser, wear a rubberband on your left wrist. A non cder will have no idea why your wearing a rubberband. But we will no and when we pass each other, just smile or wink. I think this might give us an idea of how many of us are out there. This should be very simple and shouldn't attract any undo attention. Other sites I have put this on think its a great idea and we should spread the word. Its scary the first time we wear a pair of panties out for the first time and for those of you who totaly dress. Wow, I wish I could be so brave. I think its time we let each other no who we are. Don't panic and think a friend or your boss will find out. If they do, that means they have been on these sites and they will say nothing, unless they really want to no about cding for themselves. Start spreading the word. Second Friday in November, rubberband on the left wrist. :D

I would like to know what happened last friday did anyone do thhis and what were the results?

I didnt as i am new here and have only just read this post

Is this something we should do every second friday of each month?

I found out that my good freind and next door neibour is a CD after 3 years of good freidship he told me of this after i told him i was moving to spain

I could not belive it he was sneaking around at home and in the back garden just as much as me

I opened up to him we both could not belive this!!

After all this time we both did not know

We are still in contact by email and phone now and again

I just wish we both knew about this sooner we both could have talked about it

So i think it is a good idea as you may never know untill its too late!!!!

Glad I am checking the back pages. Pip that is a great idea. Sorry for my ignorance, but what country are you from, the flag is not familiar to my limited North American mind.. Got it the second friday in November. Could we change it to the second friday in January.

I like that idea :)

I've done something close at least, on transgender day of remembrance I wore a red ribbon around my wrist at school (barely anyone knew why apart from my close friends, most people just thought i was being girly since i was CD).

I know this is an old post, but love the idea. How something so plain stand for so much. I believe there needs to be a firm date established. Could we ask Laura or one of the moderators to establish the criteria. I think this is wonderful.

Ok no input. Here is what Iam going to do. I will wear a green (No significance here Green is just my favorite color) rubber band on my left rist every day. Why should we limit ourselves to just one day or one month. Lets be proud of who we are and let each other know who we are. Amber L.

Hi Amber

What a fantastic idea! I'm surprised no-one is helping you push this forward. OK - I'm for a green rubber band on my left wrist and let's hope others will follow. I'll wear mine with pride. Come along the rest of you and let's do this! I'll push the idea to the UK Transliving forum as well. Hopefully we'll get something going! Do let me know how it goes!

Hi All,

I must have been subconsciously expressing my support this way for years!

I am in the habit of marking the pages ofthe books I read with rubber bands and any I remove automatically go onto my left wrist.

At last a logical explanation for the guy who winked at me in the lingerie department of Marks n Sparks! (I was in Mufti at the time!)

You know, I might just have a few green rubber bands laying around, I think I'll see if I can scrounge up one that won't cut off circulation and put it on my left wrist. Thanks for the idea.

Hey everyone. Michelle thanks for jaring my mind. This little incident occurred about a month ago in a JC Penney store in Indianpolis. I was just browsing around in the womens section in male mode when I had a sales associate asked if I needed any help. I told her I was just looking. I was wearing a green rubber band on my left wrist, and it caught the eye of the associate. The lady said that the rubber band was intersting, and then she ask me if it meant what she thought it meant. Of course I had to tease a little so I asked her what do you think it means. She then asked me if I was a cross dresser, and I responded proudly that I was. She told me she had read a little about transgendered people, and article about if somone was wearing a rubber band on their left wrist it meant they enjoyed cross dressing. Well what followed was one of the most interesting and wonderful converations I have ever had. She had so many questions, and I am no expert, but she listened so intently. Before it was all over I had practically told her my life story. I wished the converstion had never ended. So I guess it just go to show given ttime things catch on. Remeber be proud of who you are, and live life toits fullest. Love Amber L.

I think a green rubber band would look great on my left wrist. I am going to watch for them now, looking forward see some.

Gosh Amber, that's a lovely story! Congratulations on meeting an interested associate! After being enthusiastic about an indicative green wrist band I looked up other potential meanings and there are a few. But one that I found indicates that it is a young person looking for love. Oops. But now looking again, I can't find that item. I've been on the lookout for a cast away green rubber band but the UK seems to be out of them completely. Once I get one, I'll wear it and see if I get any comments!

Hi all,

I sourced some down at my local gym/swimming pool - they use coloured rubber bands to denote timings for users they wear them on the wrist sort of thing.

Got a great collection now!

      Again, thank you for these posts @Sally Stone. As a person just embarking on their own exploration, seeing through an eagle’s eye is invaluable. I can understand the desire to compartmentalize. I’m coming out at 47 and have several military affiliated friends. I never served myself but know them via hobbies we share. I’d be nervous about coming out to those whom I didn’t know very well, but some I do know better are openly ‘queer’. Meeting these people definitely challenged my existing stereotypes about the military in a positive way; more regarding those who comprise the services as opposed to stated protocol/mission.

      I had heard a little about this, but not much. Thanks for posting it.

      Can definitely relate. I always have something going on, whether it be painted nails, capris or just ‘a walk’. Just a reminder ‘she’ is there.

      Sounds delish so far. Today I made sourdough bread for the first time. My friend gifted me starter grains she got from etsy which came with a recipe. Giving someone sourdough starter as a gift is like giving a pet as a gift. Kind of a weird thing to do - somehow enriching, but, "here's your gift, more responsibility!" Anywho, it's a 3 day process to make this bread on top of feeding the starter weekly. It definitely needs some tweaking. The bread consistency came out great. Crusty crust and soft inside. But it didn't rise enough despite seeming to be proofed well. And I followed the instructions to make it as sour as possible which I prefer, but it's only mildly sour. I plan to try other recipes and compare. But my cousin who (willingly, lol) took some of my starter told me she recently made pancakes with it which were delicious. So I'll definitely try that soon too.

      Latest good recipe find? Lemme see...  I'm trying to recreate a local family restaurant's refried beans at home.  Right now it's kind of hit or miss (Mostly miss) on coming close to it.  Currently I'm tweaking the ratio of beans, bacon fat and smoked paprika and lime juice.  Current ingredients I've been able to sus out though are: Pinto beans, shredded colby jack cheese, bacon fat, smoked paprika, chipotle pepper flakes, diced onion, garlic and a lil bit of salt.  When I feel comfortable with the exact amounts, I'll update.  ^.^

      I have Church of Scotland roots: my grandfather was a C of S minister.  So quite apart from my general happiness at reading some good news, this particular bit of good news makes me feel especially happy.  Thanks for sharing it, @DeeDee!

      I'm wearing some new pink reading glasses I bought the other day.  Even if I'm stuck in boymode I try to do something gender affirming every day. Pink readers, tinted lip balm, clear mascara. Anything I can.

      Hi all!    I’ve been here numerous years and followed discussions in the shadows. I began my medical transition in 2018. Lost a lot of friends and family, but grew so much along the way!    Fast forward to the surgical journey.   August 2020 - Vaginoplasty  I underwent my vaginoplasty in Austin TX during the start of COVID. It was a rough recovery. I suffered some separation of stitches which landed me having physical restrictions. I then began suffering from hypergranulation within my canal which led me to seeing the GYN twice a week for 13 weeks for silver nitrate treatments. The silver nitrate ended up causing stenosis which led to my next surgery.    April 2021 - Surgical Revision I had a revision of my vaginal canal which helped with dilation…for only 3 weeks! I underwent about 10 months of pelvic floor therapy to no avail. Dilation was near impossible. So this led to my next revision.    April 2022 - Revision and Breast Augmentation   This surgery I decided to do my breast augmentation concurrently. The breast augmentation went phenomenal, no pain, 575cc Silicone implants. Awesome results.    The vaginal revision, both my primary surgeon and an additional surgeon with expertise in complicated pelvic disorders performed the revision together.    immediately I felt amazing after with no issues dilating! I am now 2 years post final revision and have no issues dilating once a week and have sex with no problem!    March 2024- Facial Feminization Surgery   I decided to have FFS after much thought. I had it done at Duke University.  I had the following done:   -Type 3 forehead reconstruction and sinus setback -Cheek implants - Orbital contouring  - Sliding Genioplasty -Submental liposuction    Recovery was not bad. First 5 days were a tad sore and uncomfortable- but honestly minimal pain.      Surgeons Vaginoplasty- Dr. Ashley DeLeon Breast Augmentation- Dr. Gerhard Mundinger FFS- Dr. Elda Fisher    I’m happy to answer any questions!   Kylie
