sometimes uncovering these memories can be so weird. I can remember for years my parents telling the story that when I was born my older sister ( 2years older) wanted a sister so bad that she used to dress me up as a girl. Over the years the story has changed somewhat. Now when they tell it they say she dressed me in towels and no mention of dressing me like a girl.

I think over time my procilivites for Cding became a little apparent to them and they switched the story. not sure if being dressed by my sister had anything to do with the fact that when I was 8-10 I started dressing in my mothers girdles that she left in the bathroom. I would say that is a bit to coincidental, but who knows.

Hi Mary Jane,

I can relate with you a bit there. After I got a certain age my relatives wouldn't allow me to play dress up, which included wearing makeup and dresses while other boys got to.

After further thought. Come here... we deserve one of these.

Thanks Beauty.

If only those who discouraged us then could see us now!!

I don't know just where I'm going with this, but I remeber when my mother caught me dress in her cloths when I was 13. She didn't say much except TAKE OFF my good dress. She handed me a white blouse and a plain stright blue skirt and all she said was you can wear these. That was a long long time ago.

I have met a few "older sisters". some resent having a younger brother, others dressed them up in their old dresses. Unless a boy had other rough boys at age 5-6, he would play with and humor his older sister.

Carol Ann,, the same thing happed to me when I was around 12. I would wear my aunts clothes and she got annoyed at me wearing her NEW stockings and putting runners in them. I didnt know she knew I was doing it till she told me to stop wearing her good things and she would leave some things for me.
I was so embarrassed I pretty much cooled it for a while.

My older sister loved seeing me in dresses, gave me the things she had outgrown. She would even do my makeup- said she love having a little sister even if it was just pretend. My fav outfit was her old girl scout uniform.

Mary Jane andCarol Ann,
Sisters are great and they get better as the years go by.
Mary Jane maybe a private converstion with your sister will bring about more information that might be helpful to you.

Mine is very supportive and helpful, and I would not have as much confidence in myself if it were not for her support and assistance

Mary Jane hasn't been around since 2005, so I doubt she'll see your advice.

Sad, but true. She joined 08-08-2005, made 17 posts, and last visited on 09-12-2005.

Thanks for the info.....

I guess that I need to read the origional post date and than decide if I would like to comment.
However, on the other hand maybe not and others will read my pearls of wisdom or idioms of idiots.

My 7 yo daughter used to dress up my 4YO son and I have the pictures to prove it. I had an extended illness as a child of 6 and my mother was a seamstress so I remember being used as a dress dummy a number of times.

I don't know if this is relevant to this post but i also remember being told I should have been the girl many times in front of my 3 year older sister... I can imagine how she felt.
