Hiding Things From Your Parents

Back a long time ago

Shoe boxes in the closet. Make sure they are marked with gender appropiate shoe markings. and put regular shoe filled boxes on top. Another good place is in a stored travel bag or suitcase. Also, remember if your mom does your clothes not to use your dresser at all. If you do your clothes, use to bottom drawers, where you keep sweaters and stuff, where nobody wants to bend down and look at. One key to keeping clothes is not to have too much, and to know each piece. You will want to keep track of EVERY item. If you are not using something, get rid of it. Finally, it's really best to keep stuff together. The more places you use, the more places that can be found. Remember clothes stored where clothes are supposed to be, are easliy overlooked by snoopers. Clothes where they shoudn't be can be easily discovered (like in your pillow case, of behind books in a book case).

Hummmm - I have done this before looks like.

the first time i had a stash i was 9....my mom went through spring cleaning and found them...when i got home from school there was a pile of my stash panties on the kitchen table and my mom had alot of mean and hateful questions...i paniced and told her it was probobly grandmas(it wasnt what she would wear but before she died she slept in my room) after that i spent years afraid of starting another stash till i was 18 when i started to discard all male underwear.....i was able to tell my mom about becoming a woman right now she seems to be ok with it(i guess the first shock made her mentaly prepared ten years later) i still have a stash but most are in the open....conealed....mostly because my moms b/f, her ex husband before i was born is living with us and he is a transexual porno freak......so i keep myself mostly locked in the closet but with my mom knowing.....the point is wherever you hide a stash your mom will find it eventualy and if you do not explain it can be hell for you almost traumatizing x.x

Hey Sakura! It must be hard for you to endure such experience. Maybe i should get a large safe and start stuffing things inside to play things on the safe side. Though it does look suspicious with a huge safe potruding in the middle of the bedroom LOL. Especially with snoopy sisters :angry:

i got caught a few times

but the one spot that worked for me

was in a box at the bottom of other boxes in my closet

i think the more inconvenient the hiding place

the less likely it will be found

Well, in retrospect my ability at hiding even a large stash of clothing (at one time, including a dress, a mini skirt, five pairs of pantyhose - different colors - three leotards and tights to match, six pairs of panties, a body briefer, slip, three pairs of shoes and a long blond wig) is working against me with my mother's refusal to believe that I am a transsexual.

How did I manage that?

Surprizingly easily, Lizzy had parts of it down - the shoe boxes at the bottom of the closet - at the time of my largest stash I was playing basketball and therefore had a lot of shoeboxes filled with my basketball shoes, tennis shoes as well as casual and dress shoes - no one dared open a box from the bottom that would contain the older basketball shoes (I played pre - odor eaters) :o

I had a filing cabinet with a locking drawer for my business records, yes I tried running a small business in college too (some people never learn) it was wiped out during the Reaganomics trickle down system (I don't even want to think about what waas trickeling down on me during that finacial plan) but I put the thinner items like panties on the bottom of the drawer and then filled the drawer with hanging file folders so that you had to remove several to see them. I kept the drawer locked and 'lost' the extra key.

We had an antique phonograph in the hall, it had a hand crank and the only way to control the volume was to open a set of double doors near the bottom of the cabinet, it no longer worke so a small table was placed in front of it for things of importance like keys, phone books etc. - I put my clothes into a plastic trash bag and stored them in the speaker enclosure. These were always outerwear because I could only access these when no one else was home.

I managed this from the age 14 until I finally gave up on graduate school and moved out in my late twenties - they were never located and that is the root of my problem today - I was too good.

Love ya,

Sally

What's my secret? I live six hundred kilometers away from my parents!

Seriously, though, be careful about using your dresser drawers. It wasn't clothing, but I used to hide things in my dresser drawers that I didn't want my parents to see. Imagine my surprise when my seemingly respectful parents proved themselves the type to go through their child's drawers for no apparent reason!

Well well well,

Good question. I thought I was the master at hiding things, but my mother found them everytime. I think that after she cuaght me the first time, she was out to get me because it seemed like she was always one step ahead of me.

It didn't matter when or how, she knew some how. I guess it was probably becuase I had no privacy where she was concerned. She just had to know everything about me.

Never had to hide anything as I never really actually had anything. I went full-time like bam. My mom knew a month before because I made no effort to hide it from anyone whatsoever.

When not using my packer/harness/other manly thingers I put them in my cosplay drawer in my dresser. If my Mom ever for some reason wanted to look for something in my dressers that's the LAST place she would go. Full of costumes, collars, leashes, kitty ears...and now penises. XD

However my boxers and such just live in the underwear drawer. =P

To be really honest.. Good luck!

Seriousely, Mothers find EVERYTHING, no matter how well it's hidden. It may take a week or even a year but it will eventually be found..

Yes, they will snoop through your stuff even when they say they don't!

Best to get an air tight container or treasure chest and bury your stash in the back yard somewhere! :lol:

Hiding it in inside the roof may be an effective option ;)

Well, I have this drawer like thing below my desk thats supposed to double up as a footrest. For years I have been filling it with junk from various electronic equipment that I happened to have dismantled (I do that all the time). So nobody ever really wants to open it and even if they do they see lots of wires,cables, circuit boards,etc. that they dont want to go through. So I just put my "things" into a bag and push it down to the bottom of the place.

I'm long out of my parents' home but still wearing hats when I'm around my mother to conceal my hair cuts and wearing several layers of clothing hoping that she won't notices that I bind. I'm justify it my own mind with she just got OK with her daughter the lesbian. My parents are really not ready for another son. I know eventually I'll have to explain what's going on with me but I'm not ready yet.

Well... I haven't really successfully hid clothes away from my parent. I usually hide them in my laundry basket, and just relocate them on 'laundary day' for a lil' while. Usually it only works for about a month, though. I get caught all the time :P. Really, though, I haven't felt like wearing those clothes for *ages*... I guess my mentality is more important to me now, as I now have a habit of writing my emotions down on paper, in the times when I would usually dress up.

Hm... Between matresses is a good idea, though. I tried that once, but didn't like how I wasn't getting caught. Yeah... strange, right? I guess I was always kinda wanted some attention on the problem... Thankfully I was able to successfully some out some months ago, and things are going, while slowly, well.

      Good morning, everyone!!   Yesterday was lawn mower battery day. I've been nursing the battery on my Zero Turn mower for two weeks. It gave up the ghost when I stopped to refuel yesterday so I had to run over to the local shop to get a new one. And forgot my wallet so I had to drive home and back again.   Then, I was using the garden tractor with the bagger to pick up the clippings. I cut about 7 acres so it took me awhile. When I was done, I went to refuel it and, of course, it wouldn't start when I'd finished putting in the gas. I'm hoping it was just some corrosion on the cables - cleaned them up, gave it a quick charge and it started right up. We'll see if it will hold a charge now or turn out like the Zero Turn.   House cleaning day today. And then I'm going to just relax outside for a bit and enjoy one more warm day before our temps drop and rain comes in for the weekend.   Enjoy this beautiful day we've been given!!

      Striking your head against the wall, you can lose 150 calories an hour. Blue color attracts mosquitoes in two times more than any other. Most toilet paper sold for home use in France is pink. In 2014, a missing woman on a vacation in Iceland was found when it was discovered that she was in the search party looking for herself. In 2005, Mark Zuckerberg unsuccessfully tried to sell Facebook for $75 million. Back then it was called TheFacebook. Strawberries can also be white or yellow, and some can even taste like pineapples! The Boston Marathon didn’t allow female runners until 1972. Banks have therapists known as ‘wealth psychologist’ who help ultra-rich clients, who are unable to mentally cope with their immense wealth.

      I attend a medical day-centre in Texas for needed medical services. It's religious oriented, so not gender fluid friendly. I of course dress 100% in female attire yet androgynous to keep both "them happy", and I really don't mind.    I of course am imposed rules that no other participant is bound by. The examples are the allowed size of my backpack, or how many visits per day I can see my Representative payee.  The gender neutral restroom use was a compromise that all off us have agreed to.  Not being able to wear tanks tops or shorts that aren't "Bermuda length" are other examples of where I am restricted more than any other participant. "Bra talk" is strictly forbidden, even though their doctor and occupational therapist were the ones that told me I needed support due to neck pain.    I found myself being reprimanded by staff three times yesterday for very petty details, and they have constantly pushed for me to remove myself from the program voluntarily. I am of course someone not welcomed in the program, but federal discrimination laws prevent them from removing me. They instead are just making life miserable with the hopes that I will leave on my own.

      Nope.  I live in a rural area.  Pride events are for city folks.  The normally quiet LGBTQ+ club kind of changes atmosphere during that time, and things get a bit political.  As a non-Democrat, I avoid it.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      For me, definitely the size thing.  I'm 5'4" on a good day, and 100lbs.  I can pass as a teenage boy, but never for my real mid-30s age.  And since my husband looks older than his age, I'm often assumed to be his kid.  Or folks think there's something illegal going on.      Also, my lack of the typical aggressive "masculine" demeanor.  I don't really desire the typical masculine social role, nor could I do it even if I tried really hard.  I'm usually quiet and kind of timid.

      I am sorry for your struggles. I cannot empathize, but I can surely sympathize. I wish only the best for you!
