HISTORY

How It Was

Carol

I am a Transvestite. Age 57, 5'5" tall, weight 160 (Lose some weight 145?).

My earliest memory of any transvestic urge came when quite young.

My memory of my mother and a neighbor lady lacing each other up in corsets that were in style of that day fascinated me to the extent of wanting to wear a corset. My aunt and grandmother took me to raise at the age of six and allowed me to put on a corset anytime I so desired. The only thing that might show their concern was that I would go to bed with my corsets on. Only to wake and find that someone had removed them as I slept. No warning that this would harm me in any way was ever given.

Sometime prior to my 15th birthday I found a pair of corsets in a neighbor's cellar while looking for magazines. These corsets fitted better than any others up to that time and I wore them most of the time, except to school.

I went to work at the age of 15 on a farm and bought my first corset, which I distinctly remember was size 22. This was accomplished by taking a note supposed to be from my aunt to a store. My corsets were worn every day and as I was growing it was soon noticed that my waist was remaining quite small. The farm work seemed not to be handicapped by wearing a corset and no one seemed to notice.
