Transvestitism is a form of personal expression where individuals attire themselves in clothing typically associated with the opposite gender. It includes wearing underwear, that is usually associated with femininity. This can include panties, bras, corsets, stockings, and other types of frilly lingerie. Transvestites accept this practice as a way to uncover their own sexual identity or for sensual excitement. Involving in crossdressing lingerie can offer a sense of autonomy and empowerment for those engaged.
