Dixie's Main Menu Page

As you may have surmised from my name, yes, I'm from the deep south. With the exception of one teen-aged year I've lived here all my life. To put it in the form of an acronym I've seen many times I'm what is sometimes called  GRITS. Now, grits are a well known and important food item made from ground corn here in the south and they are almost a staple for many families as a breakfast item. However the GRITS that I am referring to here are:

Wigs and Makeup Some women don't have a problem when their man only has on a dress or some other feminine outerwear.  But for some the addition of a wig and/or makeup changes everything.
Theories About Crossdressing Theories abound as to the root causes of crossdressing. Here are two that seem to have the most credibility.
Your Wife Still Needs To Feel Like A Woman Is there a problem here? This is a touchy subject and one that's often overlooked when a husband or boyfriend's secret is finally revealed.
He's Still My Dad A daughter's heartfelt letter to the local Tri-Ess chapter of which her Dad is a member. VERY good read for those with children who are considering telling them about being a crossdresser.
Crossdressing For Dummies A whole series of the famous "Dummies" books exists explaining almost every imaginable subject. But I have yet to see one addressing heterosexual crossdressing so I thought it might be time to produce a short explanation of what a crossdresser is.
Did you "Win The Battle?"
(Wives and Girlfriend's Version)
As a wife or girlfriend you have learned that your husband is a crossdresser. You have demanded that he rid himself of all the feminine things he has collected and to stop dressing immediately. He SEEMS to have complied with your demands, so you believe you've 'won the battle'. But have you. . .really?
Did you "Win The Battle?"
(Crossdresser's Version)
Some see "getting their way" as winning an argument. But even though getting what you want may seem to be an indication that you've "won", the price you pay down the road may be more than winning was worth.
Crossdressing - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly I'd bet that Clint Eastwood probably never imagined that the title to his movie would be the subject of a discussion about crossdressing, but here it is!
A "MUST READ" A serious inquiry from the distraught wife of a crossdresser and one of the most sincere and heartfelt replies I've seen in a long time.
Why is someone a crossdresser? Just why IS someone a crossdresser? Did they just suddenly decide this was something they wanted to do, or is there more to it than that? 
Fresh Views Posts and replies from one of the forums I often participate in. These reiterated some of my own views, but added some that I'd never considered before. A LONG page, but well worth your time to read it.
Is Your Child Transgendered?   Have you discovered something that gives you reason to suspect that your child could be transgendered? This page is especially for those parents who may not be familiar with the TG community.
My Bio I figured it was about time that I added a bio to my page.
My Yahoo Group My Yahoo Group created for heterosexual crossdressers and their wives/girlfriends. A group dedicated to the exchange of ideas and information for those who have serious questions for which they are seeking some serious answers.
My Standards I've set some standards for myself that, in my own opinion, represent those desirable in a true lady.
Why Why this web site was created
Who Are We? Ever wonder just who might be a crossdresser and who isn't? Here's an eye-opening and thought provoking insight that will start you wondering.
Motivations Ever wonder what a typical crossdresser is thinking about as they are getting dressed and then after they've completed the entire process? A lot of people - especially those who haven't studied crossdressing seriously - have ideas that are 180 degrees away from reality about this. To clear the air about it, here are several responses from crossdressers about what some of the driving motivations really are.
The Other Woman Just who IS this other women who's just come into your husband's life?

Getting Caught A lot of crossdressers think that they'll never get caught while all dressed up in their finest. The odds against this happening are definitely not in their favor. Here's a little friendly advice about getting caught.

Your First Time Out

A hypothetical look at just what the crossdresser stepping out of the closet for the first time might experience.

Letters From Wives and Girlfriends

Letters from wives and girlfriends. Some of these have accidentally discovered their  partner's crossdressing while others were actually looking for, or appreciative of, those  who DO crossdress. The first letter in this evolving section of the site demonstrates what can happen when two people work together as a team rather than fight and pull in opposite directions.

Terms and Definitions

With the oftentimes confusing flood of definitions and terminology surrounding crossdressing, this listing will hopefully help those trying to understand and clear up what it all means. This document was also a joint effort by myself and a wonderful husband/wife couple in which the husband is a crossdresser.

Helpful Hints

A section to pass along little bits and pieces of info I have acquired 

Surveys - some are of my own doing and some are national organizations. Most all of them are informative and quite interesting

And The Survey Says - Part 1

A series of sensitive and thought provoking questions asked to wives. Their responses to these questions could be of great interest to other wives who haven't yet come to terms with their husband's crossdressing.

And The Survey Says - Part 2

Thought provoking questions asked to the CDs. Their responses to these questions could be of great interest to wives or other CDs who haven't yet come to terms with crossdressing either their own, or their husband's.

Boulton/Park Survey

The largest and most comprehensive survey to date about crossdressing. There are 12 parts to this survey. You can TAKE the survey and/or see the current results by clicking on the appropriate link from the page. 'Current Results' are at the bottom of the page.

Miscellaneous "stuff" that didn't seem to fit anywhere else.

A Crossdresser's Plea

A description of just who might be a crossdresser and a heartfelt plea about the stigma placed on them by an unfair society. This document was a joint effort by myself and a wonderful husband/wife couple in which the husband is a crossdresser. If you read nothing else on this site, please read this. 

The Little Things

Mainly for wives, but interesting for crossdressers too. 

Stories

True stories about coming out. Submitted by you, the visitors to this site!

You're NOT Alone

It's a wonderful feeling when you first discover that you're NOT alone as a crossdresser.

What's YOUR Story?

A section requesting your own TRUE story about how you came out.

Pictures

At the present, there are no pictures of me on the site. Oh, I have some, but until I see how things progress I'll hold off about posting any pictures until a possible later date. There ARE pictures of some of the people who have submitted their stories for inclusion on the site and to them I am grateful for sharing them with us.
 

Most of the following items which relate to me personally are my recollections with specific regards to how crossdressing was a part of my life in the time frames depicted here. Also included are some of the new items as they are added from time to time. At some point in the future, time permitting, I will be "remodeling" these pages into an easier to navigate site since it has grown considerably since I first put it on line.
