Transvestism is a form of personal expression where individuals attire themselves in apparel typically associated with the opposite sex. It encompasses wearing intimate apparel, that is often associated with femininity. This may include panties, bras, corsets, stockings, and various types of delicate lingerie. Transvestis accept this hobby as a means to explore their personal sexual identities or for sexual excitement. Engaging in crossdressing lingerie may provide a sense of liberation and assertiveness for those involved.
