Crossdressing is a form of expression where individuals clothe themselves in apparel typically associated with the opposite sex. It includes sporting lingerie, which is
usually associated with femininity. This may include thongs, bras, corsets, stockings, and various types of frilly lingerie. Transvestis embrace this practice as a way to discover their individual sexual identities or for sexual excitement. Participating in crossdressing lingerie could provide a sense of autonomy and confidence for those involved.
