I would like to compliment on the wealth of information on this site. It is good to know I am not the only one out there that enjoys CDing.
My first CDing experience came when I was in grade 1. The school put on a christmas play and I wound up being an elf. One of the requirements was wearing a leotard. At that time, my mom didn't wear leotards so I couldn't borrow any from her. One of my classmates, a girl, volunteered to bring in enough leotards for all the elves so I wound up wearing one of her leotards over my male underwear.
I didn't think much of it, until 1-2 years later, when I was in grade 3 (or 6-7 years old).
My mom had a habit of washing her underwear in the washroom and then letting it dry on a rack in the washroom. One day I was home all by myself, and I started feeling the nice smooth nylon panties, and I wondered what it would feel like to wear them. So I did. I danced about the house as happy as can be. The panties felt great ! Being unaware of the time, my dad came home and I quickly changed back into my male clothes.
After that, I started exploring further into the realm of CDing. I found my mom's swimsuit and wore that. I eventually expanded to her girdle, pantyhose, camisole, bra, and of course panties. They all felt great !
I eventually started dressing up as a woman (sans the makeup and wig). Because of my age at that time, all my mom's intimate apparel and dress fit perfectly.
As time went on, I never stopped CDing. I just stopped wearing items that didn't fit, as I didn't want to stretch or rip any clothing and raise any suspicion.
Eventually, when I was 17-18, I finally decided it was time to buy my own clothing. At that time, men buying women's clothing was still somewhat frowned upon (people weren't as open minded back then as they are today).
I can't remember exactly what I bought, but it was quite abit of stuff. One of the items was a sexy one piece Baltex swimsuit. It consisted of bright neon colours and a front zipper.
Over the years I bought alot of women's clothing. My favourite items were lingerie, especially black coloured ones. I amassed :
- body shapers
- girdles
- panties (high cut and regular style ones)
- lots of one piece swimwear
- aerobic wear (remember the aerobic wear of the late 80s-early 90s ? Lots of spandex).
Even when I met my g/f (now wife) I still bought clothing and dressed up whenever I could. Unfortunately, to this day I still cannot bring myself to tell her about wendyniki. Her last boyfriend as a CD and she told me that she didn't feel all that comfortable when he was dressed up.
I finally had to purge all my clothing when we moved out of my parent's home to our own home. For a few months, I refrained from CDing of any sort. But wendyniki couldn't contain herself anymore and I found myself rummaging thru the wife's undergarments (panties, garter, stockings, swimsuit).
The wife doesn't wear girdles or body wear, and I found myself stretching the stockings so to avoid suspicion, I finally decided to go out and buy women's clothing again.
Currently, my collections consists of body shapers, panties, bra, camisoles, slips, girdles, an aerboic suit, one piece swimwear, and tights/pantyhoses.
Over the years, I've learned how to shop for women's clothing so I can be assured that the clothing I buy fits. I've also learned which stores (and times) are the best to shop in (I don't do online shopping). I find myself going to thrift stores (good prices but so so selection on lingerie) and department stores that have no salesperson on duty. I've also learned to overcome my fear of walking into the women's lingerie section, picking up clothing that I like (which means rummaging thru the racks to view the various styles and sizes), and walking up to the til and paying for it.
Thanks to this website, I bought my first fake nails, and they felt great when applied. Who knows, maybe one day I'll work up the courage to go all the way (wig and makeup).
Thanks in advance to all the girls on here for their support.
