INTERVIEW WITH CINDY

An Interview with Cindy

Lori: When did you first start cross-dressing?

Cindy: Unlike most CD, I started dressing when I was 54.  I grew up straight and only in my later years did I realize I was bi. Funny store about the first time I dressed.  I had met a guy online who was going to be traveling to my town, he was looking for a BJ ad being bi, I offered. He also said that he wanted to have sex with a She male or Transvestite.  I said I would look around and see if I could find someone like that for a threesome.  I did find a she male who agreed to meet and for not offer of money.  My out of town friend meeting was postponed for a few days and when he arrived, the she male was not available.  He was mad and started to yell at me as if it was my fault, so I said back, “What do you want me to do, put on some panties hose?”  He said, “Yes” so I did pantie hose, panty and bra.  He was turned to be rubbing his cock between the nylon clad legs that he bent me over, ripped a hole in the panty hose and penetrated me. I had not been a bottom a lot but the excitement he had and the action we had started me to be a CD.

Lori: Describe your beginning experiences dressing as a girl.

Cindy: My first dressing experiences were dressing in woman's undies, bra, panties and stockings. When I first started to dress could not afford wigs or heels.  I dressed to meet admires and would have hotel parties and invite other CD over to play. The more I dressed the greater my excitement became. The tactile sensations were one of the main draws of early cross-dressing.

Lori: When did you start using make-up and wearing wigs? How did you learn how to apply make up? Any tips for other TGirls? Brand of make-up you use?

Cindy: I experimented with make-up a few times, but not with any success. It was not until I hired a professional makeup person did I realize that was a Cindy waiting to be discovered.  When I first started to cross-dress I had no real desire to use makeup or wear a wig. I remember a few times trying makeup and thinking that I look like a drunk clown who put on makeup while riding a roller coaster! They make up the person I found was actually a TV porn star and who better to teach me and to do my make-up but a person in the business.  She taught me to do my make up by applying the makeup to one side of my face and then making me do the other side.  After the make-up she dressed me up, took pictures and I realize that there was a Cindy inside and now she was free to be seen.

My tips for other TGirls? Start gradually, in steps. It's tough not to go all out, and want to put everything on your face at one time. I believe that many genetic girls use makeup to enhance their features while trying to achieve a natural look. The best tip I can think of is to practice practice practice. Lots of things our wives, girlfriends, sisters, mothers, etc. learned was after years of trying different products and looks, and with advice from other women. Many of us don't have that luxury. Practice practice practice. Personally, I feel I look my best when I get my skin looking even then everything else is icing on the cake.

Lori: If you had your choice, what do like wearing the most when being a girl?

Cindy: I don't really have any favorite things to wear. Every time I dress I'm catering to the person I am going to meet. Should I dress as a slut or the girl next door?  Should I dress as a school girl or a cougar? Most men like to see stockings with a garter, five inch heels, short skirt, tight or see through blouse and blond wig. Plain and simple, dress to impress the man.

Lori: Now a bit of personal information ... What is your marital status? A sensitive area for some girls, but ... how old are you now? Does anyone know you are a TGirl? What country do you live in?

Cindy: I'm currently married, she does not know and I hope she never finds out. None of my friends, co-workers or family knows that I am a cross-dresser.). My age?  Hmm... How old do I like.  I have people guess from 30 to 50.  And I say it's all because of the makeup. On most of the sites that I have a profile I say I am fifty-eight but I am a few years older than they are.  No one wants to play around with a CD that is in her sixties.

Lori: Do you have a website and/or email you’d like to share with us?

Cindy: I don't have a website yet. People have offered their assistance but I've never really had time for it.

Been thinking about starting one lately, though, my pics and blogs are at flickr.com/photos/Cindy.

Lori: Have you ever gone out as a girl? If so, tell us what the first time is like and how you feel being out in the world as a girl.

Cindy: I've just started going out in public dressed. I go out shopping at Good Will

.

Lori: Have you ever gone through a purge of your female clothing? If so, can you tell us why? How did it make you feel? How long before you went back to being a girl?

Cindy: I purged once before when I thought the dressing was somehow overrunning my life. I went to a few different places to throw things away and felt regret almost immediately. I went back a few days later to retrieve as much as I could but sadly could not recover my favorite things.  I don't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure I dressed right after rescuing the last box. If anyone ever has the 'urge to purge,' send me your stuff in a sealed box. I'll send it right back to you when you come to your senses. Just kidding.

Lori: What percentage of time do you spend as a girl?

Cindy: I have a great schedule right now where I can dress weeknights after eight and all the time on weekends. My percentage of thinking like a girl is much higher. When I am dressed I am thinking like a woman. I look at other women and wonder whether I could pull off her look... some women look very beautiful in just sweatpants and a t-shirt!

Lori: Have you ever considered moving towards becoming more of a girl physically with options like hormones, feminization surgery, breast enhancements, or SRS?

Cindy: Maybe it's a cop-out or I just really enjoy my life as a male, but I'm not interested in any physical procedures at all. I would only consider any of those procedures if they didn't interfere with my being a guy. I think one of the joys I have with being a TGirl is the ability to switch from one expression of myself to the other and back with relative ease.

Lori: Do you feel more like a boy or a girl now and why?

Cindy: It's taken thirty plus years to say this and not feel like I'm being cliché: I feel more like myself! My male and female sides are both expressions of me, and I am extremely happy with both of them. I don't act overtly macho as a boy, or feminine as a girl. I enjoy rebuilding carburetors as much as wearing wrap dresses and strappy sandals.

Lori: Have you ever dated or wanted to date another TGirl or a man?

Cindy: Yes, that is the reason for me to dress to meet others. I started just meeting men, admirers.  But lately I have started to meet other CD and they are more passionate. The like a lot of kissing and foreplay.  Men just want to come and go, but other girls they are like the energizer bunny, they just go and go and go.

 Lori: Do you have any advice for other TGirls, especially ones that have yet to venture out as a girl?

Cindy: I can't give advice on something I haven't done yet, but a reappearing theme in giving any kind of advice is, 'Do what feels comfortable.' I'm still in the infant stages of venturing out, and have total admiration and respect for all the other TGirls who make it anywhere outside their front door. (Note: actually, I can give advice on things I have not done before…I have never eaten yellow snow before, but…

you know)

Lori: How is your life now as a TGirl? What's gone well and not so well?

Cindy: My life as a TGirl is pretty good now. At this time, I have a very good balance of my boy life and my T-life. I have a lot of free time to dress, and spend a fair amount of time not dressed. It makes my time as Cindy a little more special.

Lori: Anything else you'd like to say?

Cindy: I feel like I have tons still to say, but want to give the readers a rest, so I'll keep this one short. Thanks again for selecting me for the magazine and website! It really is an honor. This is such a diverse community we are all a part of; with varying levels of transgenderism (is that a word?).  I hope that someday I can be a more active part of the TG community.  Happy Holidays!
