I was recently introduced to my husbands crossdressing and over the past few weeks I have asked a lot of questions, cried a lot, started to understand his need to do this... I have slowly opened up to seeing his clothes and accessories and a few pictures (not full done up with makeup and a wig yet). I have good days and bad days... I guess I still don't know how this will work out. I am attracted to his masculine presentation and definitely not his feminine one. He would like to be able to dress in his feminine presentation (minor with just a womens thing and sports bra under his clothes to full on fake boobs, wig, makeup, earrings, etc) 70% of the time at home. Can anyone share their journey and how you are able to have a successful relationship and still keep the attraction?

I am the wife of a CD. He recently told me about this side of him. He swears that it it purely for the self connection to his feminine side to relieve stress, etc. It is NOT sexual for him. He is very much attracted to me. He has communicated to me that he wears women's thongs everyday and will run on the treadmill in women's clothes (sometimes wearing a wig) at least a few times a week and then once in a while he goes full out, clothes, heels, makeup, etc. I have not seen him dressed like this yet. The thought if it weird me out. I am trying to look at it as just my husband in different clothes... but I cannot get over the "ick" and I am so afraid it will interfere with my attraction to him. Any advice???

My husband is a very masculine man. Yet, he has always had a feminine side, not physically but more emotionally. He is empathetic, thoughtful, nurturing... which I have always loved. He recently told me about his cross dressing (I had no idea). I am struggling on how to process it. Normally I am all for freedom of expression... loving when guys paint their nails, etc. But for some reason when it comes to it being my husband, I am not ok with it. It's an "ick" that I cannot shake. He has taken the care to explain it as much as he can. For him it's not sexual... it's a stress relief, etc. I fear that the thought of him dressed like a woman will make me less attracted to him. And now when I know he is home alone... all I can think about is if he is dressing up... like he's cheating on me! I feel like he has this secret life that I'm not a part of... not that I want to be. I would love to get to a place where I am ok with it, and it doesn't bother me... I just don't know how!!! Help!
