Is it normal husband wants to wear dresses

About 6 years ago, and at the time having been married to my husband for 10 years, I came home early, unexpectedly, and found him parading round the house in my underwear. My immediate reaction was anger and demanded to know what the fucking hell he thought he was doing. Over the next few days I went through a range of emotions as I tried to process what had happened and why. He told me he had been doing this for a few years in secret but had never been caught before or told anyone. I like to think I am a reasonable and non judgemental person when it comes to people’s sexuality and cross dressing etc, but when I suddenly found out my husband was a part of this I wasn’t quite so understanding. Over the next few weeks there were several arguments, tears and discussion about all of this as I tried to understand and accept what had happened. I eventually came to terms with things and we agreed to get him his own female underwear which he could wear at home. After a while things went back to normal with us but he started pushing more and more about things he wanted to wear such as sexy night dresses etc. I went several times from comfortable to uncomfortable with all of it and never knew when he was going to be wearing male or female underwear or night wear. Eventually I told him something needed to change as I was still struggling with all this. I told him he had to make a choice, if we were to stay together he needed to either wear female underwear all the time or not at all, and the same for the nightwear. I don’t know why this became important to me, it just did. He agreed and chose female. He kept one pair of boxer shorts which was exclusively for trips to the doctor. All this has been fine for the past few years, I’ve accepted it and it’s our secret. However, he now says he wants to start wearing skirts and dresses around the house. I feel this is a step too far for me. Am I being unreasonable and selfish?

    I will never understand how people hide their fetishes from people they intend to marry. This is the sort of shit that should come out well before.

      They hide their fetishes for fear of rejection. No matter how much people love each other, usually for a woman to hear that their man has as much if not more lingerie or dresses than she does, well society and the "moral majority" has been pounding things into peoples minds that things work like this and anything from that normal by their "standards" well, hell they are the outcasts, the "freaks" , or just not acceptable to "social standards". So instead of a "live and let live" society, people for the most part are so fucking judgmental because "society" told them how it should or shouldnt be. If a guy wants his wife to fuck him in the ass with a strapon, who are we to give a crap what goes on behind closed doors. If the wife wants to fuck other women with a strapon, again, who the hell are we to make judgements on others and what they do behind closed doors.
      So many people are busy in the neighborhood gossip gazette and trying to see what others do so that they might somehow have a juicy "oh yea, listen to this" kind of a story to tell at the next neighborhood bbq.
      Myself, i dont advertise it but i dont keep it to much secret anymore that yea, i am a crossdresser since age 13. I have no idea why at the time why i had wondered about how it would feel to wear a bra. Most of my friends know and and it dont matter to them. And if it does matter to them, then they dont matter to me.
      We may not all agree with what others do in private, but a fetish is a fetish is a fetish. Be it one that you agree with or not. But on the other hand they may not agree with whatever your feyishes are or may be. Just look at things from both or all sides before you decide to be a huge prick and pass judgement. There is only one that i feel can pass judgement on me and it make a difference, that would be the Good Lord above. So why not leave the judging to him and live and let live.

    That's a tricky one. This sounds important to your husband so I'd try to be more accepting of it. It sounds like you are already though. Maybe try to discover the real reason this angers you and then you'll be able to get over it? I don't know.

    If he wants to wear a dress, let him. It's perfectly OK. Why do you have an issue?

        Why not? Many years ago men wore dresses - check out the history books.

    • I don’t know why! I don’t have a problem with women wearing trousers even though once upon a time that was totally unacceptable behaviour. Now it’s considered normal. But the idea of men wearing skirts/dresses is not acceptable to the majority in our society, which when you think about it is totally hypocritical. Yet I still have a problem with it, even though I can’t explain why. What makes it even more hypocritical is once upon a time men dressed in tunics and tights. These were far more like the short dresses women often wear these days which would have been considered outrageous at the time if a woman had dressed that way. They were expected to wear longer skirts that hid their legs.

        Do you have a problem with men wearing kilts?

        • No. I guess this is also down to social conditioning. We all know the Scottish men traditionally wear kilts, so we accept it.

        That’s the real issue I have with people’s longer posts. The lack of paragraphs and/or spacing in some of them makes it a wall of shit to read.

    Why do you people find it so hard to use an enter key? Makes a giant congested pile on mobile otherwise.

    If I found someone especislly my significant other wearing my clothes I'd probably leave them. If you want to wear girl clothes buy your own damn clothes and dont stretch mine out ffs. that's my stance in ths issue. Though I'd probably still leave them. No interest in dating a crossdresser. Not mg cup of tea

    As towards your question no I wouldnt say its selfish. Tbh its reaching but it's almost as if hes grooming you, intentionally or not that's how it sounds.

    You were with him a long time abd he kept a very big and I ml portent part of himself secret from you. It all plays a role in a successful relationship. Do what you will but I personally want a man in my life not a sissy.

    • Here’s the thing. I could never describe him as a sissy. Growing up his step father was extremely violent and used to belt him regularly, in his teens he started to intervene when his step father was in one of his drunken rages and beating his mother up yet again.

      At 15 he found out his step father had been regularly rapping his sister for about 4 years since she was 12. At this point he went berserk and that night when he came home my husband attacked him with a kitchen knife ready to kill him. He was stabbed but didn’t die but he had been so drunk, when he woke up in hospital he didn’t know what had happened. My husbands mother made out it was self defence and as everyone knew what he was like they believed her.

      At 18 he joined the military and went on to be in special forces for 10 years. I don’t know details but I know he saw and did some terrible things. Since leaving the military he’s worked in construction in what I would very much describe as a mans world.

        Yea that has nothing to do with being a sissy. The definition has changed since like 1990

        • Yeah the whole world has changed and I don’t like or understand a lot of the modern ideas. But to me a sissy is a girlyfied whimpey man and he definitely isn’t that.

      Oh yeah. God forbid men be feminine. We all know feminine men are disgusting because being feminine is weak. Nice.

    I think you’ve been super reasonable through the whole pantie part. It just isn’t for everyone. But it did grow on you. Could also the skirts and such?

    • It never actually grew on me but I accepted it with some difficulty. It’s not that I’m homophobic or anything like that but it came as a huge shock to me. In the end I accepted it but I found it difficult when one minute he would be strutting round in his boxer shorts and looking like the guy I married, then the next day he takes his trousers off and he’s wearing a frilly little pair of knickers. I can’t really explain why but in the end I just felt I needed to know what to expect when I saw him taking his clothes off. I gave him the choice but told him it was all or nothing whatever he chose. But it was still our secret, if he starts wearing female outer clothing like dresses and skirts sooner or later he will get caught, then it’s out there and there’s no hiding it.

    Well he's obviously got a fetish/ obsession what have you. You'll just have to decide if you're willing to deal with it or not.
