Have you told anyone about your preferences/ fetish? Or do you keep
it to yourself? I'm curious because I'm pretty transparent about
most things in my life with my closets friends, but this is the one
thing nobody knows about me, not even my ex girlfriend knew I had
this fetish (although, to be fair, I was really curious with her
and would ask questions especially in bed).

I don't announce my idiosyncrasies, or preferences, to others but I
don't conceal them either.
I don't care if anyone knows it but...the topic never comes up with
me.

Never told anyone.
Not a person that dresses up, or even fantasizes about dressing up-
that sort of thing is far from an interest to me.
What I am is a fantasy role player- a table top gamer, and quite a
few of my characters have been magically altered, or have been body
swapped, or what ever. I use it in almost all of my campaigns.
There are a few people that I suspect- that probably think, but its
not really a thing, they know my ultimate interest is in the female
body- okay, so if I was gender swapped I would find me a lady
friend very quickly (pretty sure my wife would not), as guys just
do not interest me.

Hell no! I'm taking this to the grave if I can help it! I used to
have aspirations to do acting or some form of entertainment but now
I'm paranoid about it because I'm afraid of becoming a news story
for what I like if someone finds a paper trail.
Most people who know me in real life find me to be weird but in a
charming way; I'm well regarded in most social circles but this is
something to make people look at me as WEIRD, like "you're not
wrapped right". I only plan on three people ever knowing my
interest in life and that's me, myself, and I.

Honestly, no. Do I want to? Yes. I would love to have long
discussions about this sort of thing with my best friend or some
girlfriend who just gets me, or with a well trusted acquaintance
who happens to have their own paraphilia.
What I am is very much akin to what they now call a "cross
dreamer." I fantasize about being in a (genetic) woman's body,
either through a body swap, magical transformation, or something
like that. That is my biggest one. And that's the one I feel I
can't even tell my best friend.
It's not because I don't trust him or feel that he wouldn't get me
and be empathetic about it, but it would definitely change how they
think of me. It would make them see me in a different light.
I love to fantasize about being in a woman's body, it gets me off
in the most wondrous ways. But I don't want people treating me as
if I like to be identified as a woman in my day to day life (while
possessing a male body). I'd rather play the role I look like for
the time being, especially as I seek out girls to be in a
heterosexual romantic relationship with (where I am the guy).
In essence, I am a paradox. I don't think anyone would truly get
that. If I were to tell someone the best I could probably hope for
is to have them treat me like they would a genuine trans person. I
just don't see myself that way though...

I actually told a girl I was dating in the past I was into
"bodyswapping/possession".
I'm not entirely sure how the topic came up, I believe we were both
revealing our sort of 'fetish', but I was EXTREMELY nervous and
unwilling seeing as she was the first person I've ever told.
Her ex was actually into gore, so my thing felt pretty normal in
comparison. She was extremely open minded about these sorts of
things, which is primarily why I even told her in the first place,
but overall I seriously don't think anyone would really judge you
for being 'into something.' Everyone has their own little fetish
and, honestly, genderbender-y stuff is pretty tame compared to a
lot of stuff.

@Jayzie
I was going to make a post but it would be essentially a
recapitulation of yours so I won't.
There really should be reali life meeting places for people like
us.

Are you crazy!
I get enough flak for being a Martial Artist, kayaker, medieval
recreationsist and inventer! Letting people know baout this will
absolutely convince them that I should be locked away.
On the other hand, I have writtenand published a lot of meta
stories that include werewolf, gender and alien changes.

Similar to Gypsy, I shove TFs and swaps into all I do. I think my
friends are aware of it, but don't know it is a fetish or think of
it as weird. I haven't told anyone I have a transformation fetish,
but I don't think the reaction would be too bad. It's not something
you can really do. If it's just TG I think the reaction would be a
bit more varied.

Only my wife. Very accepting, though I still keep most of my

I have a feeling one of my friends has an idea about it, but I've
never told him. A gay acquaintance who didn't know had his "gaydar"
"kinda'" go off on me once - he now knows.
First to know, my therapist... then my shrink, then my new shrink.
One old doctor (who's since passed away). My sibling and both
parents, two cousins (and the wife of one), two second-cousins. A
handful of my closest friends, including two ex-g/fs. Though I
haven't told them, possibly one friend's little sister and another
friend's wife. And I suspect that everyone close to me who finds me
"weird" may be suspicious of something along the lines of the
truth.
I won't deny the truth if confronted... I just expect that A. Most
people don't want to know; B. Most people don't need to know; C.
Those who do know won't understand. -- so I don't advertise. But I
have confided in some of those who closest to me... and obviously
those professionals who might be able to help.

Not sure I fit into the usual category of folks here since I'm more
of a horse gal and people already think we're crazy.
Folks tend to think we're just crazy cat ladies with a a little
more money :) But naturally, everyone knows I love being around
horses, we have several of our own and I can tell you my own little
dreams are not at all uncommon, just fun!

Actually... Yes. Despite my total WASPy, fine upstanding,
patriotic, healthy normal American boy professional persona, pretty
much all my friends know my, shall we say, peculiar habits and
interests (TG and TF). It started with confessing to a (now ex)
girlfriend when I made it back from Afghanistan and felt I had
nothing to lose, and it just spread. True, I hadn't planned it to
spread as such, but once it did... It turns out it really wasn't
anything to worry about. And it eventually turned out that letting
people know has been cathartic; none of my friends are surprised
around Halloween, that''s for sure, lol. In fact, at this point, I
think my friends would be disappointed if I didn't show up
crossdressed or wearing an animal costume in October (or any other
month for that matter).
The key is not being ashamed about it- and you shouldn't! Why?
Because IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL. My current GF knows, and though she
doesn't exactly understand it, she sometimes indulges me for fun by
wearing kitty or bunny ears and painting on a nose and whiskers.
Don't build it up! Think about it like you think about your
favorite ice cream flavor. Trust me, EVERYONE has sexual secrets,
so when they hear ours, it's really not all that shocking. Some
people like latex, some like bondage, some like assplay, some like
Jell-o, some like (insert random fetish here). Everyone has one.
It's a kink, and nothing more. To wit - "Oh me? Well, I actually
have a transformation fetish. I find the idea of changing physical
forms sexy and liberating and exciting." See? Really not a big
deal... Trust me folks, your life will be more fun when you realize
that our kink, though admittedly unique, really isn't anything to
get twisted up over.

Thanks, Dude, for your service.
Its not an embarrassment to me, its just there is nothing to say
about it. Seriously.
I do not dress up- the idea kind of turns me off, as does the idea
of a relationship with a guy. I have no desire to get anyone else
involved, there is no part of this that would be enhanced by
involving anyone else.
I appreciate and thought that people like to dress up and kiss
guys, and involve others, and furries and all that, I think its
great that people follow what gets them going. It is just.... there
is nothing there for me but reading stories, writing them, RPG,
comics, and so forth.
Sorry, guys/gals, no offense was intended, I just- and Dude, if I
read it wrong I am sorry, but I felt that Dude was saying something
about courage in facing up to people in our lives knowing. I don't
care if they know, I just see no reason to say anything about it,
my fetish is all imaginary and that is where I like it (until I can
have a day- only a single day, then I am good).

I've tried to in the past. Usually goes something like this.
Her: Comment about her clothes
Me: Half joking request to borrow her clothes
Her: Continuing with the joke, describing outfits I should try on
Me: Still pretending to joke, but really over the moon, describing
her taking me shopping and out for girls nights
Her: Randomly changes the subject
Me: sigh
