i never liked stroking. prior to my operation this was my preferred technique.

I've been on lush for a while, but never came into the forums. So this will be my first post on here.
I began dressing as a young kid. Encouraged at first by my parents. But after a few years, they took my girl clothes away and told me to grow up. So I have had to hide it since I was young. I have never dressed as a sort of fetish thing. Only to feel "right". Dressing as a girl, affirmed my identity. As I got older, the opportunities to be that girl again were fewer and fewer, until I was able to live on my own. But since I had been made to feel like I wasn't "normal" if I dressed, I still hid it. I am a very masculine man, who enjoys male activities - hunting, sports, working with tools, etc. But when I have the opportunity to transform my body with clothing, my brain changes with it. I think like a girl, and immediately recall the way I felt when I was young - being told how pretty I looked - and all the positive attention I got by being that little girl.
I'm so sorry they took your girl stuff away. I was encouraged when I started dressing and I loved being told how pretty I looked and the positive attention I got as a little girl too. The difference with me is that that support was never withdrawn and now I'm just another college girl who happens to be trans. You can read a little about how it was for me growing up. here: https://www.lushstories.com/forum/lgbtq-community-forum/crossdressing-8?post=4076326

Personally I prefer the real thing but would not have an issue with dating a post op as long as she was willing to use a strap on, but then again that's why I love trans women as it is the best of both worlds
I don't think you understand how dysphoric you could make someone feel by asking someone who specifically had surgery, to wear a strap-on. Just don't.

As a transsexual girl the first question I always get asked if I have a penis. I always tell them truthfully that I still do have my penis, which gets them all excited.
Frankly, I'm a woman, and don't really like talking about my penis. That is why I tuck it away when I get dressed.
I'm wondering what will happen after I get surgery. Is the only thing others like about girls like me is what I have down there?
Full disclosure, I had surgery 5 years ago, love life and never have looked back. My experience was that I felt inhibited when I still had mine. Also my dating was limited. If you're okay with guys who fetishize us because we have a penis that's fine but I wasn't because I wanted nothing to do with my penis. So to answer your question yes a lot of people only like us because of that body part but there are others who like us for who we are. It's so worth it to find the latter unless you're just looking for someone to have some quick fun with.
Today I do not date "t-girl chasers" at all as I don't really need to and almost no one at my college knows I'm trans.
Back when I used to have to tuck (before surgery) I'd get thongs which were purposely made for tucking. You can find them online. These fit tight made of cotton/poly and push all your stuff back and up. I was not very big and these made me nice and smooth in front and i could even wear a swim suit and no one would know.
One thing I'd caution against if you're like me would be satin, silk or even very soft nylon. Those presented a problem for me because I loved how they felt against my skin so much that i'd get hard sliding them up. Sometimes i'd get hard even before i reached in the drawer for them. Like I said, everyone is different but if you're like this, save yourself time by saving the sensual panties for sexy time ![]()

It gives a girly feel that is sexier in itself, reasoning in an erection.
^ this... when i still had a penis and it was tucked back i'd often wear pantyliners or thin pads for the practical reason I said above and it was also reminder that i was a girl and that was sexy to me
I'm a transgirl who has dressed since I was 7. At 12 I was able to finally go to school as a girl and in my early preteen-teen years the thrill of just wearing something really pretty would still regularly arouse me to the point of depositing precum in the middle of panties where i was tucked back so i wore pantyliners and always kept some in my bag.
I'm a post op transgirl so to answer your question...
Outside: When I am in a lovely sundress and a guy caresses my bottom or legs or plays with my hair or kisses me on the neck or lips.
Inside: When I slowly undress for him revealing my sexy lingerie and he pushes me back on the bed and starts the action.... sucking my breasts caressing my pussy either through my panties or inside them.

I was lucky, my sister gave me her old dresses and bought me bras and panties
Same. I didn't buy my first girl clothes until I was 14 but I had been dressing up after school and on weekends from the age of 7. Stuff was either handed down from my sisters or in the case of bras and panties bought by my sister or mom.

I bought a few pair of panties online but couldn't have them shipped to the house so I had it shipped to Lane Bryant. When they came in i had to go into the store to pick them up. Two weeks ago I wanted to buy a bandeau so I went to the mall to the Torrid store and ordered it. The girl was real nice about the whole thing. Luckily when it came in she was there again to help me. When i picked them up yesterday she asked me if I wanted to look around for anything else. I was a little shy about that so I just said no. Maybe another time.
I'm a transgirl who during my first year of college worked in a thrift store and I could spot crossdressers from a mile away because of how shy some were about looking at clothes. I was always very helpful and even let a few know I was trans (to their astonishment) so they felt more comfortable.
Who knows, maybe that girl who helped you was trans or knows someone who is a crossdresser or trans that they care about.
More likely she just don't mind. It's 2022.

'Love pats' panties at Thrifty Drug store. About 13 or 14 years old. Also bought L'eggs a lot back then, too.

OMG the first panties that were ever bought for me (I was too young to buy them for my self) were Lovepats. Were yours the nylon ones? Mine were. So soft!

Not to 'label' yourself, but this group within the LGBT community has an extremely wide diversity, from occasional hetero dresser to post-op.
What's your deal?
22 year old Post-Op, transgirl who has lived as a girl since age 7 and never went through male puberty.
First let me start by saying I am not a crossdresser I am a transgirl but you asked about Halloween so....
At 6 I said I wanted to be a princess for Halloween. My parents were reluctant but my sister said she'd help me with my hair and makeup before school that day and take me trick or treating with them in the evening. Like I said, my parents were really reluctant, my mom more so than my dad but they agreed to let me.
For the entire month of October I was thinking about how I might look and feel . When that day/night night came around it was magical (no pun intended). A few days before we got my costume, a lovely pink and white satin princess dress with a tiara. My sister bought me some matching shoes a little girl's clutch purse and clip on earrings. In another bag were some underthings. A little white nylon slip and a pack of girls panties. She asked me if I wanted to wear that stuff too and I nodded.
The clothes and outfit was so soft and so different than my boy clothes and i loved how i felt walking in it with the material caressing my legs.
I got up 2 hours early because I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep and I was told to be up an hour earlier than normal. My mom and my sister helped me get dressed then my mom went to work and my sister did my makeup and hair and showed me how to powder my face and reapply lipgloss then that stuff went into the clutch purse and she drove me to school.
A lot of kids made fun of me but not everyone, some girls thought i looked really good and didn't know who I was at first thinking i was a new girl in the school. That made me feel really good. They asked me questions about my hair and makeup and I told them my sister helped me. They asked me to sit with them at lunch (normally I sat alone). I felt accepted on some small level as another girl.
That night my family took me trick or treating and no one in the neighborhood knew who I was, they thought I might be one of my cousins.
After it trick or treating was over, my mom was like "well you had quite a day, let's get you out of that costume" and I asked if I could keep it on and she asked me why since Halloween was over and I said because I felt I was a girl inside and I liked how it felt and I wished I could wear dresses every day.
And kind of stunned she just walked out of the room, got my dad and asked me to tell him what I told her. I did and my dad kind of just nodded like he expected this and the two of them walked out of the room before coming back and saying I could keep it on until bedtime.
I began wearing those panties under my boy clothes and my parents asked if I'd like to see someone to talk about my feelings. I said yes.
The rest is history, I started seeing a child psychologist and she recommended i be allowed to play how i wanted and dress how i wanted at home after school and on weekends or vacation. A year later my room was repainted in all disney princess colors pink and lavender and i got a girl's bed and night stand set. I got clothes handed down from my sisters and some new things my mom bought towards the end of the year.
At 12 they realized it wasn't a phase and I started testosterone blockers and we got my name legally changed. I also went to school wearing a dress for the first time since that Halloween.
A year or so later I began estrogen hormones and 5 years ago I had surgery.
I'm 22 now and in college and no one knows I'm trans.
Quote by Sweetaboo
Bottom. I don't want any attention whatsoever to the boy parts. I'd get rid of them if I could.
^ Exactly this.
I've always sat down to pee, never touched my penis when I had one, except to wash. I never went through a male puberty as I was on testosterone blockers at 12 and hormones not long after. I found interesting ways to masturbate with a pillow like many girls do, or orgasm by squeezing my thighs and shifting my hips while tucked. I've always wanted to be entered in any position. I had surgery 5 years ago and i love having my pussy fucked. So I am now and have always been a total bottom.
