My name is Cathy I have a son ('daughter') that is 20. I first became aware of the fact that she had been in my things when she was about 11. I suppose it's a thing women notice some of my things in my lingerie drawer were out of place it started to be just panties at first but as time went on other things were also out of place. I would find my niteys ,bras, slips nylons and other things had also not been put back correctly. This went on for about 3 or 4 years with just my lingerie drawers having been gone in. I started finding a piece or two of my lingerie in her room but i left them where she had them and never mentioned it, I wasn't sure exactly what to do. I didn't want to say something and then her be embarrassed but i also didn't want her to have to hide it from me. It's an odd situation to be in I had just thought it was a stage or curiosity the boys have ,seeing what women wear ,sneaking and trying to see them dressing things like that over the later years it progressed into more of my things out of place skirts, dresses, tops and shoes. By this time i was very much aware that it was more than just curiosity that she had been dressing in my clothes. I try to be a very open-minded person about things and I believe everyone should be who they truly feel they are and not have to hide things, life is short enough without hiding something that is enjoyable and makes a person happy and feel good about themselves. The full dressing went on and about 9 months ago or so she finally told me of her dressing. We sat and had a long talk about it and i could see it was something that made her be more comfortable with herself. I often wondered over her years of dressing what she did and how she acted when she wore my clothes. I thought about it often and wondered if I should have said something but just as the people who dress i didn't know how she would react to me saying something. I had been divorced prior to her starting to dress or at least prior to when i first noticed she had been in my things, I wondered whether me raising her myself had anything to do with her dressing. A man figure was not present in her life all these years and perhaps that made a difference just like the cd's, ts's, and other family members there are a lot of things her and I both need to discover about all of this. I totally support her 100%in her dressing her being happy is all I can hope for. The only rules I had for her when she told me was that she take care of my things and put them in the laundry when she was done wearing them and that she had to help with the laundry, two women can go through a lot of clothes so it made a large difference in the laundry. She dresses all the time at home and always wears at least panties when she goes out or to work as a man. WE had discussions about hormones and other things and if that's what she decides that's fine, I just want her to be sure about it its a big step in her life. A lot of things would change with hormones and when she developed breasts it would effect her going out or to work. There are a lot of issues that arise on both sides of this its not something a lot of people think about. I hope this helps everyone understand my outlook on her dressing if anyone wants to discuss any of this please let me know. And if anyone has any suggestions let me know I'm on a lot but rarely sign in so feel free to email me, send me a message or add me to your friends list.
