Why people crossdress?

Answer

Crossdressing has nothing to do with sexuality. 95% of cross dressers are heterosexual (similar to the percentage of the 'normal' population). People sometimes confuse it with sexuality because often homosexual males do it as an expression of their sexual freedom.

Some people crossdress at Halloween because it is a time when they can reveal a hidden desire without being judged. People who have wanted to crossdress for years (and do so privately in their own homes) feel Halloween is an opportunity to explore themselves in a safe enviroment

Answer

The great majority of cross dressers are normal heterosexual men. The reasons they cross dress vary, from minor (one article) to major (full time female mode), and few are gay.

The question asked about 'guys', which could be nearly any age. The youngest may just want to try it out. Teens may too, but could already be cross dressing.

But the answer is "Why not?" I doubt you'd find two identical explanations from those that do cross-dress.

Answer

it's just that it's fun as heck.

Answer

Halloween is a safe and fun time to experiment. Plus it really is fun. Also, girls clothes are cheap and plentiful, especially if you have female family members. It's a lot easier and cheaper to crossdress than to try to make your own gorilla suit. Don't read too much into it...after seeing broke back mountain, I'd be more concerned over dressing like a cowboy.

AnswerBecause he's a fan of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. And nylons and female accessories are easily available.

Crossdressing occurs when a person of one gender finds beauty in the fashion normally restricted to the opposite gender. They feel as if their own gender's designated fashion is not enough for them to express who they feel they are inside, so they adorn the clothes society as set as the standard for the opposite sex.

There are a number of possible motives for cross dressing. Some people are not comfortable with their physical gender, and would like to be the other gender, so they can pretend to do so by cross dressing. Other people are perfectly happy with their gender but derive some sexual satisfaction by contact with the clothing of another gender, which is a symbolic or indirect form of contact with that other gender. Some people (see Milton Berle, for example) just think it's funny. I'm sure that there are other motives as well. Human psychology is complicated.
