Transvestitism is a form of expression where individuals attire themselves in clothing typically associated with the opposite gender. It includes donning underwear, which is typically associated with femininity. This could include panties, bras, corsets, stockings, and other types of frilly innerwear. Transvestites embrace this interest as a way to uncover their personal gender identity or for sexual stimulation. Involving in crossdressing lingerie can give a sense of autonomy and assertiveness for those involved.
