Crossdressing is a form of self-expression where individuals attire themselves in apparel typically associated with the opposite sex. It involves wearing intimate apparel, that is often associated with femininity. This may include thongs, bras, corsets, stockings, and other types of frilly undergarments. Transvestites accept this hobby as a method to uncover their individual sexual identities or for sexual excitement. Involving in crossdressing lingerie could give a sense of autonomy and confidence for those participating.
