Hi!
Just a very quick post this morning to remind everyone that you are not alone.
Whatever clothes you like to wear, and for whatever reason, whether it’s for arousal or gender affirmation or comfort, there are countless others like YOU.
I think the internet, despite all the horrors, provides reassurance and reminders that although it’s possible and even likely that you felt that you were the only “boy who wears girl clothes” in the world, you are far from the only one.
I mean, if you’re reading THIS you should remember I am like you.
And there’s nothing wrong with this side of us.
There’s far more like us than you could possibly imagine. You have to remind yourself that it’s not unrealistic to think that the guy who is fixing your car or the coworker you hate or your fishing buddy might be wearing the pinkest panties in the world under their fishing uniform.
I know we often feel like we don’t fit into the world or that everyone “knows” that there is something different about us, but I promise you that there are countless others like us that you may never suspect that they have a feminine side to them.
I am reminded of this with almost every guy who messages/emails me. I get a lot of men reaching out to me and almost every single one of them is boring and/or looking to rail me. And that’s not really flattering. I mean, many guys would have sex with anyone given a chance. Some guys even have sex with furniture so a dude wanting to sleep with me is not the compliment they may think it is.
My point is that almost every guy who hits me up will (after a few back and forth riveting variations of questions like “wat r u doing” ) will eventually tell me that they too wear “girl clothes”.
Literally, almost every guy.
I mean, can you blame them? Who wouldn’t want to wear what we wear? Whether it’s a nightie or a ballgown or leggings or eyeliner, this side of us is amazing.
When I get a message on Twitter I always check out their profile before I respond. If their feed is nothing but porn (not that there’s anything inherently wrong with that) I probably won’t respond, but the majority of guys seem to be, well, normal. Their feed consists of sports or music or their family, but under the surface, under their khakis and dorky short-sleeved buttoned up shirt, they are protecting a secret.
Listen.
If you are stared at when you are out en femme, there’s a really good chance it’s a guy wishing he had your courage and your wardrobe.
Okay, have a good weekend. Love you.
Love, Hannah

As ever, thank you Hannah for your always well considered, well placed blog entries which are truly much appreciated.
This one sums things up particularly perfectly.

Precisely…
This is an absolutely reasonable hypothesis for all of us to make, but your experience and anecdotal research into the individuals who message you puts some empirical fact along with the assumptions made. For a person like me, that is a huge deal.

Hi Hannah,
A year ago, I was one of those many cisgender men that came out to myself as a crossdresser and also had no idea how many of us there were. With the internet and resources like your website that were so critical for me to find, it made the process of finally understanding and accepting myself easier. Without this support and testimonies like yours, I would have continued to think there was something wrong with me and suppressed this side of me forever.
We are fortunate to have each other and the ability to share our experiences. Without these resources 30+ years ago, one felt very isolated.
Thank you to all that continue sharing their strength and hope so that others don’t have to suffer in silence.

Love the article. When I’m out It’s nice to feel pretty and get a compliment. A sincere compliment enriches the experience. A compliment from a sincere man does help with my feminine experience. Funny, I could care less about a compliment when I’m not dressed feminine.
