Transvestism is a form of personal expression where individuals clothe themselves in clothing typically associated with the opposite sex. It includes sporting lingerie, that is often associated with femininity. This may include thongs, bras, corsets, stockings, and additional types of frilly undergarments. Crossdressers adopt this interest as a way to discover
their individual sexual identities or for erotic arousal. Engaging in crossdressing lingerie can provide a sense of freedom and empowerment for those participating.
