So, I tried this crossdresser thing. You know, where you dress up like the opposite gender? Yeah, it was quite the experience. Let me tell you all about it.
First off, I had to get my hands on some women’s clothes. I didn’t have any sisters or a girlfriend whose closet I could raid, so I went shopping. It was awkward, to say the least. I felt like everyone was staring at me. I quickly grabbed a dress, some tights, and a pair of heels, then rushed to the checkout. I mumbled something about it being for a costume party when the cashier gave me a weird look.
- Shaving: I had to shave my legs, chest, and face. I have never done that before, and it took way longer than I thought it would. I got a few nicks and cuts, but I was pretty smooth afterward.
- Makeup: This was a disaster. I watched a few tutorials online, but it’s harder than it looks. I ended up with way too much foundation, my eyeliner was all over the place, and my lipstick was smeared.
- The dress and heels: Putting on the dress was an event in itself. It was a tight fit, and I had to suck in my gut. Walking in heels was another challenge. I felt like a baby giraffe learning to walk. I stumbled a few times, but I didn’t fall. It was really hard, especially when I was walking downstairs.
After I was all dressed up, I just hung around the house. I didn’t have the guts to go out in public like that. But I did take a few pictures. I sent one to my best friend, and he was shocked. He said I looked like a completely different person.
I served dinner to my parents, and they were speechless. They didn’t know what to say. After they calmed down, they asked me a lot of questions. I explained to them that it was just a bit of fun and that I wasn’t planning on doing it regularly. But they got my point, I guess. They supported me.
It was a fun experience, but it’s not something I see myself doing often. It’s a lot of work, and it’s not really my style. But I can see why some people enjoy it. It’s a way to express yourself and step outside of your comfort zone. If you’re thinking about trying it, I say go for it. Just be prepared for a lot of weird looks and a whole lot of effort.
