ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Cross-dressing

Cross-dressing is when someone wears clothes that are usually associated with the opposite gender. For example, a boy might wear a dress or a girl might wear a suit.

Sometimes people do this because they like how the clothes look or feel. Sometimes people do this because they feel like they are a different gender than the one they were born as.

It's important to remember that everyone is different and it's okay to express yourself in the way that feels most comfortable for you. Some people might not understand or agree, but as long as you are not hurting anyone, it's okay to be yourself.
