I've dressed in ladies underwear, my wifes mainly for as long as I can remember, when I was only 8yrs old I remember pinching my sisters school knickers. Im 46 yrs old, married with 3 kids. I cant hide this anymore, im shaking as I write this.

Hi Emma, Please don't feel bad about dressing, you are doing nothing wrong or illegal, nor is masculiity threatening. If only everyone could be educated into the awarness of how harmless cross dressing is. Thank you for having the courage to send this E.mail. I would like you to talk to someone at Transformation . I need more information into regarding your circumstances, are you simply TV or could it possibly be that you feel you have more transexual needs? Help can be forthcoming. So do not feel alone.

My cousin has asked me to be a bridesmaid at her wedding, only Jenny knows I'm a crossdresser, what shall I do ?

Wow ! What a wonderful compliment. You must feel very flattered. Jenny obviously has a lot of confidence in your appearance and ability to pass as a "real" girl so why haven't you the same confidence ? There will presumably be other family members present so why not discuss your fears with Jenny. Don't forget if you decline you do run the risk of offending and alienating a true friend. Only you can assess the risks involved but it sounds like too good an offer to miss. Just think of the beautiful dress which I'm sure you'll get to keep.

I'm "caught short" whilst out shopping in Selfidges Ladies Department and I'm desperate for the toilet, what do I do ?
