Is it ok that I want to wear a dress most days?

I was bullied at my lower school aged about 6 or 7 and one of the ways I used to find comfort and feel safe was when I used to go round to my friends house after school and play dress up where I used to wear her princess dresses mainly. The problem is now that I feel like doing it again. I have had some therapy and that seemed to help but my urges are getting stronger again. Is this normal or should I seek further help. Thank you

Everyone seems to be hung up on clothing , who is to say what clothes you should put on your body ? Is it not your body? Are we to live our lives by what a few think is correct attire for everyone?

I think everyone should wear bellbottom pants and tank tops , hair should be shoulder length on one side and shaved on the other . Yep that’s the new style of 2024 .

Wear what you like it is on your body, you and you alone should have the say over your body.

@Repete Persuade some "celebrity" to endorse that second paragraph in the right sort of glossy magazine and, yeah, so shall it be!

@ArishMell that’s about the size of it, always trying to be someone else by acting or dressing like them. It isn’t the clothes that makes the person usually.

@anoderod55 I like loose but bell bottoms are a little bit to much for me 😂
That’s exactly why we have different clothes to choose from, but they are only clothes.
