Transvestitism is a form of expression where individuals attire themselves in clothing typically associated with the opposite gender. It encompasses sporting lingerie, which is usually associated with femininity. This could include thongs, bras, corsets, stockings, and various types of frilly lingerie. Crossdressers accept this practice as a way to discover their individual gender identities or for sexual excitement. Involving in crossdressing lingerie may give a sense of freedom and empowerment for those engaged.
