Calling all crossdressers

Well before I was 27 and learned all about transsexualism. I considered myself a bi cd. I started with my mother's panties (sister didn't live with us) at about age 12 as another user has stated, but I never masturbated to them. Plus they were way to big for me. So I found some on neighbors clothes line.
When I was about 15 or 16 is when I started stealing my friends sisters panties from her dirty laundry hamper. I believe I've taken about 15 pairs from here over tow years.
It wasn't till I was 18 when I got my first credit car that I bought other feminine attire. And would slowly build up my wardrobe. Though unlike cds, I have never "purged". I never wanted to get rid of my feminine clothes. I felt so much comfortable in women clothes, and hated wearing men clothes.
Guess that's why I transitioned only 3 years after finding out about transsexualism. And let me tell you. I was very nervous before my first injection of estrogen. I had no clue if it was right for me or not. But once the effects were noticeable after a week or two. I found out what I'd been missing for 15 years.

And I know this thread was specifically aimed towards cross dressers. I chimed in cause I considered myself one in my early years.

I've also added a few pix of myself from when I was between 18 and 20.
