Looking back on this year I can’t imagine ever being so content and comfortable wearing things I wear now. Perhaps it’s hormones or a genuine sense of glee. But I’m just so happy. 

At the same time I also can’t help sometimes feeling like a tremendous imposter. With family and personal life areas in mind I can’t always enjoy the this and that’s that I’d like to more regularly. I find ways to be more daring and enjoy more ways of wearing something in places and areas I may be foolish to risk it. But as happy as I am wearing. I’m equally as anxious at times. And can’t help but sometimes feel I’m just being stupid and ridiculous. I often want to just get rid of everything, requesting to delete the profile and go about my business but then I don’t cause I know this is just a happy space for me. Like a garage or under a car or gym to many. Mine is in my me time moments of being just a feminine version of self. But still just find often as happy as I am when dressing. I’m also just upset cause I feel foolish for enjoying it. Idk. Anyone else ever relate

Yes… I can relate.

Over the last year, I have come to care less and less if people discover that I am wearing a bra. Still there is this tendency to feel like I need to “hide it”. For me, it gives me a feeling that I am doing something that I shouldn’t, and I do not like to feel that way. I long for the day when man or woman, we will just be accepted as “people wearing bras”.

Exactly. I sometimes I feel I’m living a double life. I know I’m not but it feels that way when I have to hide what I have in my drawer and closet or go braless and be uncomfortable to avoid situations that may otherwise be and it kind of sucks to not just be able to wear a bra or other things openly and be accepted and not questioned or gain suspicion of sorts.

I whole hearted agree. It does seem like a double life sometimes. I have just returned from 10 delightful days with family and never thought about dressing in my girly things but now I am back home it seems the natural thing to do. Like IJMD I sometimes want to rewind and wish I had never started but then again I feel so comfortable and complete when I dress en femme.

I can admit that there are times I have decided to not wear any bra, like when going out with family. Those times are becoming less and less as I become more comfortable wearing. I try to fight those feelings of embarrassment because l love wearing so much. This Christmas season, no matter where I’ve gone I’ve worn. Can’t say I feel like an imposter!
i  just really wish wearing dresses and bras would become more normal for us guys. It seems as time goes by public attitude is shifting. I thing each and every one of us need to help keep it going!

Today I am chilling out with my GF at her home.  I’m in a nightgown and panties.  

She does not want to see me en femme or in a bra, but does not mind this.

I’m happy with that.  When I am home by myself I dress as the moment strikes me.

It may be all male, all female, or a combination. I just do what makes me most comfortable in each situation.

One whole dresser is dedicated to girly things as is much of my 10 foot wide closet, but I have been downsizing my collection.

The obsession seems to have dwindled which actually makes me more comfortable in my gender fluid skin.

I would love to be able to be ‘me’ all the time and to be able wear my feminine clothing whenever, wherever without fear of judgement or condemnation.

Unfortunately that is not so and I’m limited in the main to when I have the house to myself. I wear panties 24/7 and that’s the norm with my wife. Bras are different  and I wear one whenever I can.

My wife is not a supporter but knows I wear almost every day around her. If it doesn’t show she doesn’t care, even out in public nowadays. No wearing around around family and friends.

Outer wear is restricted to when I’m alone. Again my wife is well aware of the dresses, skirts, blouses, and high-heels that are in our walk-in robe and that I fully dress up when she is at work etc. She sees all the bras, panties, lingerie and occasional outerwear that gets laundered each week and says nothing.

It is not ideal, and its frustrating that I have to hide that part of me that makes me the person I am, and it has taken years to accept it is what it is.

I’m now content to accept what limited time I have being ‘me’, with my wife’s knowledge, than being deep in the closet. I’m happy with a little rather than none.

Cheers, Sailor

My thoughts exactly!

If more men are seen wearing bras, skirts, etc., it will become more “normal”.

Yeah not so much imposter to self but to others. I often feel a sense of if they only knew of sorts or double life type thing. Idk for some reason becoming as in tune to my feminine side as I have this last year it’s brought great joy but also great anxiety of I’ll never be able to wear this openly why am I even bothering having it to begin with and if wife friends etc knew what then
