Transvestitism is a form of self-expression where individuals attire themselves in clothing typically associated with the opposite sex. It encompasses wearing underwear, that is often associated with femininity. This may include panties, bras, corsets, stockings, and other types of delicate lingerie. Transvestites adopt this interest as a method to explore their individual gender identity or for sexual arousal. Engaging in crossdressing lingerie can give a sense of freedom and empowerment for those involved.
