What to do if your a crossdresser and you are 12?

Answer 1

If you are a cross dresser do not be worried or embarrassed. The main problem you may have is that this is not something people in many contemporary cultures understand. It may be sadly necessary for you to not be open about this because of this misunderstanding.

It will be best for you to find someone who can understand and be supportive of you in this. You could try talking to a counsellor or someone you can trust.

Clothing is a form of self expression, and most cultures also use clothing to distinguish the sexes and the genders (these are different: the male sex is not necessarily masculine in gender, and female not necessarily feminine). By cross dressing you are expressing and exploring the gender opposite to your sex. This is absolutely ok. Not everyone identifies strongly with the gender that matches their sex. Many societies and cultures can be harsh to people who do not conform to these rules.

There is big a difference between a cross dresser/tranvestite (this word comes from trans "across" and vestment "clothing") and a transsexual, someone who strongly identifies as the opposite sex physically, and would like their body to be physically changed to that sex. These terms are often confused by people who do not understand them, and think they are the same.

Answer 2

Just wear whatever you want, as long as it is appropriate for your age. Be careful though, as many people aren't accepting of crossdressing and you could get in trouble from your parents, or you could get attacked by bigots.
