In my struggle with crossdressing, many Bible verses have been helpful to me. I’ve studied them, memorized some of them, and often read them after failures. I’ll periodically mention and comment on some of them and how they relate to our fight with sexual sin. For...

In a few days it will be Halloween. I post a reminder at this time every year. I know firsthand that it is a time of vigorous temptation. Even just seeing other people or children getting into costumes can conjure up memories of crossdressing, or fresh desires to...

Can God heal you or cure you from crossdressing? More specifically, can God remove your autogynephilia disposition, your cross-gender desires? Can God remove your gender discomfort? Can God remove all desire to crossdress? Yes, I believe he can do all of those things....

I want to counteract what I see as false advertising on the internet, even if that false advertising is unintentional. Crossdressers on internet forums and blogs make out that giving up crossdressing is a sure-fire way to be miserable and stressed out, a sure-fire way...

One of the important things to do, (that can easily be overlooked), when giving up a crossdressing alter ego, or crossdressing addiction, is to get some new hobbies. Let’s face it, crossdressing was a huge part our lives. For some of us, our crossdressed self...

In this post I want to analyze the similarities between a struggle with crossdressing and the power of the one ring in The Lord of the Rings books. I am not writing this as a logical argument against crossdressing. I’m just writing out of my own experience of...

It can be a huge issue for many of us to give into crossdressing while we are away from home and family on business trips. This has not been an issue for me as I don’t travel alone but am usually with other pastors. For me, it was a bigger problem to be home...

I have to admit that when I think about crossdressing, I can come up with certain good qualities about it. This may surprise you to hear me say this. But it’s true. And these good qualities were often the things that tripped me up and got me to rationalize...

I am frustrated with crossdressers for expecting or even hoping for their wives to act as lesbians. If you are a Christian who believes that homosexual behavior is sinful, then trying to get your wife to act this way with you (while you are crossdressed) is...

I found this video really helpful in thinking about avoiding crossdressing temptations, in life or on the computer. The video is by pastor Mark Driscoll. Let me first say that some of what Pastor Driscoll says in his sermons makes me uncomfortable. I think he is off...

I believe that some of our desire to crossdress is due to natural curiosity. Perhaps we initially crossdressed the first time because of curiousity, but that event became a sexual experience at the same time, thus fusing the bond between ourselves and crossdressing...

I’ve said many times that although we can resist crossdressing, it is likely that our desires will never “fully” go away. See my post on that – Healing doesn’t mean no more temptations. But in this post I’d like to challenge myself...

The Bible doesn’t say a lot about crossdressing and autogynephilia, but it says more about homosexuality. How can understanding homosexuality and the Bible’s view of it help us to understand better how to think about crossdressing? A friend sent me an...

I want to share a great idea. If you want to limit your crossdressing, both your actual practice, and your temptations, then grow a beard or a mustache. Here are a few of my thoughts. On the one hand, having a beard or mustache seems like a stereotypically manly thing...

Our culture very much values freedom and freewill. It’s basically the supreme American value. And that is why I am so often completely stunned that people quickly deny their own freedom, in order to rationalize their behavior. It doesn’t make sense to me....

This is one tool to fight crossdressing temptations that helped me a lot even though it seems a little bit counter-intuitive. When crossdressing temptations would come, I would, like all of you, have a thought about how pleasurable it might be. One of the things I did...

It’s Halloween season. It’s a crossdresser’s paradise. Many of you might be thinking about dressing up because your wife or friends won’t actually think less of you for doing so. Some of you might even have wives or girlfriends who would have a...
