5 Things I Like/Hate about Crossdressing

I ran across this today.  Jessica-Who is a comedian (en femme).  This is the 1st time on her site, but I found this video and just had to share. 
Jessica-Who 5 Things 



Make-up - Jessica hates this because she didn't grow up getting to learn make-up and how to apply it.  She loves it because of how versitile it is.  I COMPLETELY agree. 

Those of us who are CD didn't grow up learning makeup. We need LOTS AND LOTS of practice. Unfortunately (at least in my case) we don't have the opportunity to do make-up as much as we would like.  Without the help of B, my make-up would look horrendous.

Jessica is great.  Check her out when you can.

Sexy Disney Princess

When I was a kid, my mom let my hair grow out.  This was in the 70's.  It was kind of a bowl cut, but long.  I've tried growing my hair out long today, but I quickly don't like it and cut it short again.  It's kind of funny since I love wigs that brush my shoulders.  Maybe it all started when I was a kid.
I was not the boy that wanted to be a girl. I was every bit a boy.  Now on the other hand I do want to play dress-up, have girl talk, giggle, put on make-up and what not.  My avatar on a lot of sites is Tinkerbell. 
I don't know exactly what attracted me to Tinkerbell.
It could be the smokey eyes. 
Maybe the figure (who wouldn't kill to have a figure like that....well maybe not a waist that small). 
It could be the pixie dust that can do so many things. 

I will say that I would give a lot to look that great in that short dress.  Man that gets me every time.

My cell phone cover keeps up with the theme.  It's neon green and my daughter put a Tinkerbell sticker on the back of it for me.  To keep it on, my wife put a clear tape over it.  I absolutely love it.  Of course I am not at "out" at work, so it's the little things that make me smile.

Well being the Tinkerbell fan that I am, I was really intrigued (and a little turned on) when I found this posting about Fairytale Pin-up Calendar.  After looking through these, I might have to change my avatar (and desire) to another princess. 

But maybe not.....

First outing

Well I thought this blog might go in chronological order,but I guess not.  For my 1st post though, I wanted to give some details of my 1st outing. 

Getting ready on this Saturday night was awesome.  I personally really like the process of getting my femme-self ready as much as I like the finished product.  In hind-sight my outfit was close to gothic,but not quite.  With the black skirt and black straight hair.  I had 2 inch heels.  I wore footless tights so I could see my redtoenails.  At 6’4”, 2 inch heels makes m ea giant; at least that’s what I felt like. We got a box of 100 fake nails in different sizes.  I matched the size to my nails, taped each individual to a holder, and painted them the day before gluing them to my fingers.  That was the best idea my wife ever had. 

My wife helped me with my makeup.  I feel like a early Jr. High girl putting my own make-up on.  You know what I’m talking about.  Too much here and not enough there.    I want to look sexy but look like Bozo theClown.  So…I get help.  I know I need more practice, but I will hold that discussion for a later post.


From top to bottom: wig>make-up>bra with c-cup or d-cup padding>blouse>footless tights>skirt>2 inch heels.  I can’t stop grinning.  This is going to be a WONDERFUL night. It’stime for us to head out.  North Texas is friendly for a crossdresser as well as GLBT.  Wewent to a hole-in-the-wall gay bar in Arlington for a drag show.  They have these every week to support one charity or another.  Our friend wasalready in the bar waiting for us.  He found a table.  SURPRISE….he didn’t know about Candi, but he does now.  I order along-neck beer and my wife orders a mixed drink.  He brings my beer with a straw so “my lipstick doesn’t rub off”. 


About half way through the night, I really needed to go pee.  OK, now I am at a crossroads.  What bathroom do I go in to.  Our friend asks (he is a great guy, huh), and wife and I go to the girls room.  I should have known.  The night progressed and we had a blast.  At the end of thenight after the show, we had some time to dance.  The DJ put on some music and we went out on the floor.  What was awesome, we met another couple.  The CD has been coming to this club every week “because they don’t judge”.  His “lady friend” loves to support him.  They were out on the floor dancing and I think she knew Patrick Swayze because she was Dirty Dancing .  We swapped out partners and she did the same with me.  Aggressive is an under statement.  Fun but aggressive.  We closed down that bar.

We get home laughing about the night all the way.  In the door, clothes off, matching red nighties on, straight to bed.  Although sex was on our minds, we were both exhausted.  I started the day as a husband and ended the night as a girlfriend.  Soon we will have another night out.
