From the Publisher:

My Husband Wears My Clothes has become the number one book on the unique topic of crossdressing. The author, Dr. Peggy Rudd, describes both the positives and many of the problems faced by wives and partners of crossdressers and suggests solutions. This book is a "must read" for anyone in a transgendered relationship or anyone interested in the phenomenon of men who cross gender lines. This book is frequently the first book to be read by a spouse or partner when she discovers that her husband/partner is a crossdresser.

From the Author:

Today the expression, "Clothes don't make the man," has a new meaning for me. My husband is as loveable in my clothes as in his. He is a more complete person when the feminine side of his personality is openly expressed by wearing feminine clothing. For me acceptance and understanding have been accomplished by reading on the topic, interacting with other men who crossdress and their significant others, and being sensitive to my husband and his needs.

In writing this book I am not exalting or advocating crossdressing. My purpose is to help eliminate many of the misconceptions. Society has been repressive. This is because people do not understand the true feelings and behavioral patterns of crossdressers. What people do not understand, they tend to fear, and fear breeds prejudice. As the reader grows in awareness my hope is that tolerance and understanding will grow proportionately. I do not expect readers to accept all of my thoughts and theories, but I do hope that the topic of crossdressing can be approached with an open mind.
