Transvestitism is a form of self-expression where individuals clothe themselves in garments typically associated with the opposite gender. It includes sporting intimate apparel, which is often associated with femininity. This can include panties, bras, corsets, stockings, and various types of frilly undergarments. Transvestis adopt this hobby as a method to uncover their personal sexual identities or for sexual arousal. Involving in crossdressing lingerie may provide a sense of autonomy and empowerment for those engaged.
