The woman had begun showing signs of mental illness following the death of her daughter, so one day he put on a woman’s dress, just to make her happy. She liked it so much that he kept doing it for 20 years.
“The first time I dressed as a woman she was so happy, so I kept doing it,” the unnamed man says in the video. “I’ve basically been living as a woman ever since. I don’t own any men’s clothing,” he said.
Asked if he was embarrassed about what people will say when they see his attire, the man made it very clear that the only thing that matters to him is his mother’s happiness.
“This is my family’s business, if you don’t like the way it looks then don’t look,” he said. “I’m doing this for my mother. Why would I be afraid of people laughing at me?”
Despite suffering from mental problems, the man’s mother seems both aware and appreciative of what her son has been doing for her these last two decades.
In the video, she can be heard saying “She is my daughter, when my other daughter died she became my daughter.”
