I am sorry to hear of Betty’s passing. I am a long term shy sissy who hasn’t visit the site in a few years. I am glad Betty’s sister and the community have kept the site going. I hope to visit more often and maybe even contribute a few things.

A quick word of advice.
Due to the inconvenience of taking them off and putting them on, don't wear a diaper unless you plan to use it exclusively. If you can control going pee "most of the time," then "pull-up" type incontinence briefs allow you to pee in the toilet in the usual way, although in a public restroom you will have to use a stall since you have to pull down your trousers and no-fly incontinence briefs to pee.

I have read several stories on other sites of teenage boys in the UK being "put back in short trousers" and treated as a much younger boy ("age regression") as a humiliating punishment.

That has me wondering...
Up until World War I, nearly all young boys wore dresses. They "were breeched" (meaning they graduated from dresses to trousers, usually short trousers) after being potty trained, usually sometime between ages 2 and 6 years, although some boys' doting mothers kept them in dresses till 8,  10, or even older. What I am wondering is whether "being petticoated" (i.e., forced to dress in girls' clothes) wasn't also a form of age regression--so the boy was not being feminized as such, but being regressed to an even younger age. Please be aware that in cases where this was the goal, things like makeup, high heels, and other paraphernalia of adult femininity would be off-limits.

Anybody have any thoughts about this?

Hi,

I'm guessing he had an older sister.

I recently watched the movie Fighting with My Family on Tubi. It's based on a family of wrestlers, mother, father, brother and sister. At the beginning of the film the siblings are kids and the family is trying to convince the sister to wrestle in a girl's match. She is reluctant so her brother offers to dress up so she can wrestle him and he can help her in the match. It's a nice scene and it's a fun movie. I recommend it. Tubi is free with commercials. I tried to do a screen capture, but there is something in Tubi's code which prevents it. This is a link to IMDB with two photos to give you an idea of what the scene looks like. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6513120/mediaindex/?relatedNames=nm8992589
