’ve often wondered how different the world might feel for us crossdressers if more celebrities or sports stars openly admitted they enjoy wearing women’s clothes. I don’t mean as a publicity stunt or stage costume—but genuinely, in their own time, just like so many of us do.
Take someone like Harry Styles—massively successful, stylish, and unafraid to blur the fashion lines. He’s been photographed in dresses, lace, and pearls. It’s bold and great to see… but it always feels more like an artistic statement than a personal truth. And that’s fine. But imagine the impact if he, or someone else of his stature, said outright: “Yeah, I crossdress. I wear women’s clothes because I enjoy how they make me feel.” That would make waves.
And what about in sports? Footballers, rugby players, cricketers (I played all those sports and crossdressed after playing those sports sometimes so it figures some pro sportsmen must do it too)—the very epitome of "manly men." What if one of them came forward and said, “When I’m not on the pitch, I love slipping into something soft and feminine. I’m still the same man, just a bit more rounded than society expects.” It would turn heads, sure, but it would also help normalize something so many of us have kept hidden for years.
I’m not saying it’s easy. There’s massive pressure on public figures to maintain a certain image. But visibility matters.
For many of us, crossdressing started young and in secret. I never imagined there were others like me until I discovered online forums and blogs.
The loneliness, the guilt—it was all part of it, until I realized I wasn’t alone. Imagine if that reassurance could come earlier—just from seeing someone familiar and admired talk openly about it.
It’s not about being famous. It’s about using visibility to break down shame and confusion. I’ve had messages from so many t-girls—and their partners—saying my blog helped them feel normal. That’s all most of us want. To feel normal.
So maybe one day, a star striker or Oscar winner will open up about their own secret heels and dresses. And when they do, I hope the world listens—not with ridicule, but with understanding. Because crossdressing isn’t a joke. It’s not a kink. It’s a deeply personal expression that deserves the same respect as any other.
Until then, I’ll keep writing, sharing, and helping others know they’re not alone. And maybe—just maybe—someone out there will be the first to take that bold step into the spotlight, heels and all.
