What To Do And Not To Do

1. Don't assume you're husband is gay

The fact is, a lot of straight men crossdress, and a lot of the time, they're ashamed of it because society deems it unacceptable for heterosexual men to do this. So, although your first thought might be that your husband is gay, and although that could possibly be true, it's probably not and you shouldn't assume this.

2. Don't assume your husband is transgender

Much like the assumption that your mind will jump to about your husband being gay, you may also assume that he's transgender or wants to change sex. As mentioned above, a lot of heterosexual men that are happy being labeled as men, crossdress. Therefore, don't assume your husband wants to change his sex.

3. Don't panic and think your relationship is doomed

It's completely normal for you to panic and become nervous about your marriage, but you need to calm down and realize that this is much like any other relationship issue you've had before and the two of you can work through it - you're partners for life!

4. Don't tell your friends straight away

don't tell your friends straight away

Although confiding in your friends is great and it's probably what you normally do when it comes to this matter, it's best not to for your partner's sake. Your partner may not want anyone to know about his cross-dressing, and it's not for you to share, so it's best to get advice elsewhere.

5. Do background research on cross-dressing

Before you panic too much or confront your husband about it, you should really research cross-dressing. This is a delicate matter and something that you shouldn't go into blindly, so do your research.

6. Do realize you can't fix or change this

It's important to realize that this is a part of your partner that you are unable to change or fix. You need to find a way to accept that and work together with him, rather than against him.

7. Do openly talk to your husband

You do need to talk to your partner about his cross-dressing habits as it's something that affects both of you. The two of you have to have clear, honest communication without judgment or prejudice.

8. Do ensure he feels like he's in an emotionally safe space

You should always try and ensure your partner feels in a safe space, both emotionally and physically, and to talk to him about this matter, you need to be certain he feels like he can be open and honest with you. For example, confront him at home, not when you're out and about with people around.

9. Don't judge him

Imagine if you felt vulnerable about a personal matter, would you want to be judged by your partner? Of course not, so make sure that when you speak to your husband about cross-dressing, you don't judge him. Instead, listen and be open.

10. Do show empathy and try to understand

Although you might not fully understand why your partner dresses in clothes designed for women, you need to try and understand why he does it and show empathy to him. It's probably a really big deal for him to even speak to you about it, so try to be understanding and nonjudgemental.

11. Don't pressure him to tell you anything

You might want to rack your husband's brain about this topic, but it's going to be really overwhelming for him if you do this. Instead, let him tell you things in his own time and don't put any added pressure on him.

12. Do ask if he's questioning his sexuality

Your husband might be heterosexual, as a lot of heterosexual men do crossdress, but it is always worth asking (in a calm, honest, and open manner) if he is questioning his sexuality. If he is, it's important that you know.

13. Do ask how often and where he cross-dresses

You should ask your partner how often he cross-dresses and where he does it, so you can gauge how much time he wants to spend looking like the opposite sex and whether he wants to do it strictly at home or in public.

14. Do think about your own boundaries

Of course, it's important that you practice compassion and understanding, but you should also set your own boundaries. If you're happy for him to crossdress at home but definitely not in public, tell him. If you don't want him wearing your dresses and would prefer he bought his own, tell him.

15. Do set ground rules that the two of you are happy with

As a pair, you need to lay sound ground rules so that both of you feel happy with the knowledge that no boundaries are being crossed.

16. Do support him

A lot of men really struggle with their emotions when it comes to cross-dressing, so make sure that you support your partner. After all, you're a team and he supports you right back.

17. Do ensure there's always an open conversation about it

do ensure there's always an open conversation about it

In case either of you crosses any boundaries or breaks the basic rules you set together, you need to work on maintaining open, honest communication when it comes to this situation especially.

18. Do seek the help of a therapist if you need to

Some couples in this situation find it valuable to spend time speaking with a therapist and communicating with a mediator in place. If you're struggling to communicate with your partner about his cross-dressing, this is a good idea.

We all have things that we'd rather keep secret or parts of ourselves that make us feel vulnerable and judged, so try not to get too hung up on the fact your partner cross-dresses. You love each other, and underneath it all, that's what matters in life.

FAQs

Why does my husband want to wear women's clothes?

There's an array of reasons why your partner might want to wear women's clothes. Some guys like dressing up in clothes designed for the females because they prefer them because they want to embody a female character for a moment or it can be because they actually want to change sex.
