Sorry, but my answer is going to be boring. This happened before transgender issues started getting a lot of attention, so I just thought it was funny and naughty. I wasn’t thinking about gender identity. Now I don’t feel like my gender is a big part of who I am, so I also don’t feel a strong reaction (either positive or negative) to the idea of having a different gender. I do think I would look terrible dressed as a woman - I don’t have the elegant androgynous sort of male body.
At one point the girls (or should I say “the other girls”) were holding me down and trying to put makeup on me, but I wriggled loose. I do regret that a little, not because I wish I had had makeup on but because I think that if I had been less self-conscious back then, I would have had more fun and better stories to tell too. I was so self-conscious that it overwhelmed even my teenage hormonal desire to let a bunch of women holding me down do whatever they wanted to do to me.
No, but your question reminds me of how before puberty, I wanted to play video games as a male character (girls had cooties) but after puberty I often prefer to play as a female character. I still play RPGs as a male (I suppose it helps me get in character, plus romance subplots feel weird otherwise) but in other games I usually choose female characters because they’re prettier (not necessarily in a sexual way). I liked paying Guild Wars because many of the women’s outfits were just gorgeous. One character class went into battle wearing my choice of fancy dress. That was fun.
(The Guild Wars graphics look a lot worse than I remembered. They seemed really good back then.)

Have you ever worn women’s clothes outside that, or wanted to? How has it felt if you did?
