There is so much negativity in our culture, perpetuated by the people of our very own culture... It made me feel disgusted about myself for the longest time. Where are the decent self respecting n hopeless romantic crossdressers n trans folks ... i would ask myself. Im so happy i found this blog post... n this website... i dont know about others but ive never seen this much positivity on a crossdressing forum ... im crying... 😢literally... 😭 ... i feel like so nice to finally meet some genuine crossdressors i can relate to. <3 ... you guys are Amazing!

In my case my initial crossdressing began with the full support of an also-youngish woman friend leading to public dressing at Halloween. This was ten years ago and I was a very youthful 45 (indeed, I look back at those pictures an amazed I was that old -- feminizing made me even "younger"). My actual sexual liberation came - with full support from much younger friends - when I got divorced and started a new life that not only made my libido expand exponentially, but also led to my seeking rebirth as a full lifestyle crossdresser. <br /><br />I was experiencing an intense hetero love life despite those annual Halloween thrills and was in fact living with a much younger woman I admired for her fluid sexuality -- she was convinced she could enter a loving relationship with anyone straight or LGBTQ, a beautiful thing. All I knew was that we had sex constantly for more than a year and I did not feel like I was 24 again -- I felt better than that.<br /><br />It was while living with this woman at a University where we were both seeking advanced degrees that I was invited to a Halloween-like, conservative old-school hazing event --- an evening where the new graduate students were ordered to serve both the male professors and existing male grad students while dressed as Playboy Bunnies. It was a tradition that apparently had been occurring for more than thirty years. One of my young friends who was Gay had confessed not long before that he crossdressed; he and I therefore helped each other get ready for the "primer" which was a rehearsal of sorts in street clothes to make sure the newbies were in the spirit of things. When we were handed our bunny outfits for the actual evening of hazing service, I remember almost hyperventilating at the idea of serving men while fully committed to acting as a woman.<br /><br />As I stated, that fateful night, in addition to those many Halloweens before, fully changed my life for the better, and I have been living as a "bi-woman" ever since, presenting myself as such to both supportive friends and business clients. While I have aged a lot since then, I have never questioned those Halloween nights of "flaunting", or the Sad Cinderella next-days of reverting to my male self, because they all led me in this direction, a new life lived in a more open and freer world, without a single person needing to feel hurt or offended. And when I see men laughing or sneering at the idea of crossdressing, I know that deep down most of them are just a high-heel click away from joining me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-23619962312501479452020-10-28T09:58:37.665-04:002020-10-28T09:58:37.665-04:00Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme', Burns and All...Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme', Burns and Allen, "The Bickersons" for us old coots who remember radio shows and my personal favorites, Kiki and Herb https://www.facebook.com/kikiandherb/MikkiBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776593599337986303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-4548671008837185032020-10-27T12:13:46.452-04:002020-10-27T12:13:46.452-04:00Sonny & Cher, Travolta & Olivia Newton-Joh...Sonny & Cher, Travolta & Olivia Newton-John as in “Grease,” Karen & Richard Carpenter, Ike & Tina Turner, Simone & Garfunkel (LOL)Stanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259788604423472207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-17133442246919345852020-10-27T12:02:30.362-04:002020-10-27T12:02:30.362-04:00Not that I am aware of and I am sure that if it wa...Not that I am aware of and I am sure that if it was called a "Femulators Ball," I would have been informed about it.Stanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259788604423472207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-5823288954241399662020-10-27T06:17:04.376-04:002020-10-27T06:17:04.376-04:00btw, i thought i would point out that the pictured...btw, i thought i would point out that the pictured "captain" impersonator (he and ms tenille were never big in blighty, so transvestites couldn't have used them as an excuse to cross-dress with the missus) has (unless it's part of the "joke") seemingly never played or even looked at a piano keyboard in their life!<br /><br />that pic does makes me wonder: on the occasions i had a female partner in my life, were we to do similar with male/female pop duos popular in the UK, who could we have chosen from? the only examples that immediately spring to mind are travolta and livvy, or elton john and kiki dee! feel free to offer up other suggestions...gina vnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-40288532668486750652020-10-27T06:00:06.546-04:002020-10-27T06:00:06.546-04:00despite the halloween tradition being around far l...despite the halloween tradition being around far longer than the USA itself, for some reason it has always been celebrated with much more fervour there than in the auld country. thanks to the ongoing americanisation of this green and pleasant land it seems a lot more popular today, but in my childhood it was a very much a low-key affair - where if we could be bothered, we went around knocking on a few doors of neighbours in home-made horror costumes to give them a "fright". but then again we had no reason to mental over it, as unlike americans we had "guy fawkes night" to look forward to the week after (another form of hegemony, which involved burning an effigy of someone who conspired to depose the monarchy on a bonfire whilst letting off fireworks to "celebrate" that).<br /><br />so there was no "trick or treat", no pumpkins, no mass-produced witch or skeleton outfits in shops, nor anything else along those lines to my recollection. even when i worked in an office in the 80's and 90's, there was no tradition of celebrating the event in fancy dress. therefore no convenient excuse for a closeted transvestite like myself to "hide in plain sight" (i suspect that phrase is another "americanism" that has recently become popular here btw).<br /><br />however, i am getting the impression from reading the femulate site that it has become almost commonplace for guys with secret feminine fantasies to turn up at the office on halloween in drag, as opposed to being dressed as dracula or something. if so, then i would probably have done exactly the same. in fact, i made use of a similar occasion in order to make my debut public appearance en femme without raising too many eyebrows - which was on a new year's eve, where it was tradition for the whole town to go out celebrating in fancy dress!gina vnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-28157385157396125362020-10-27T03:16:08.956-04:002020-10-27T03:16:08.956-04:00Stana , has there ever been a Holloween Femulators...Stana , has there ever been a Holloween Femulators Ball ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-87200727728315379892020-10-27T01:19:05.421-04:002020-10-27T01:19:05.421-04:00Thanks for a GREAT Halloween story that turned out...Thanks for a GREAT Halloween story that turned out on a positive note.<br /> I hope you have other stories that you are willing to share.<br /> Halloween is most certainly our 'National Holiday'. <br /> OTOH, <br /> October 29, is National Cat Day!<br /> Velma<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
