My Aunt Cathy. I spent weekends and holidays at her house as a girl. She is the kindest person I have ever met.

A TV station in my area has started showing "That Girl" reruns from the late sixties. It starred Marlo Thomas as Ann Marie, a single (not so) struggling actress living in Manhattan.
I watched an episode I first saw when I was ten years old and all kinds of memories came flooding back. I remember how much I loved her clothes and makeup. I wanted to be her little sister! I also remembered how hard I pretended to be uninterested in it, like a good boy.
Although technically not girls, I also remember being fascinated by an article called "That was no lady" in the Parade (I think) Sunday magazine from the mid sixties.
It was a photo essay about actors who had done drag in movies and on TV. Some, like Cary Grant in "I was a Male War Bride", didn't interest me, but some of the "ladies"
were quite convincing. I was around seven years old and asked my mom to save it.
Oneof my flatmates from years ago and her group of friends.
They dressed me and took me "out".
Work on your elegance,
and beauty will follow.
The first girl to inspire me was Karen from the Mickey Mouse Club. I loved how everyone looked out for her and the way she wore her clothes.
One of my mom's friends. she was such lady.always dressing so femine .
The first inspirational girl I can remember (outside of one girl in particular at my school- you know who you are, Debbie W.!!!), was Valerie Bertinelli, in "I was a Mail Order Bride". Both were extremely cute and probably still are!
For me it was probably Sharpay in the scene below from High School Musical I thought she looked amazing with long blonde hair, combined with the feather look dress and shiny silver heels. My girlfriend at the time loved it so I decided to watch the film and it was the first time I looked at an attractive woman and wanted to be her instead of being with her, so much so that I used to sing and dance to the film pretending to be her
For me it was my friend Jodi. She introduced me to all things female, she was and still is, beautiful, smart, sexy, loved how she dressed. She shaped many of my tastes for things such and lingerie, perfume, clothing, and attitudes towards sex. She continues to inspire me to this day and some of my mannerisms are based on her.
I definitely wanted to be her!
The first one was probably Mary Tyler Moore. The last one was you!
Having had a pantyhose fetish long before I knew what a fetish was, I was mesmerized by one of my grade school teachers. Back then, the late 60's, teachers wore dresses everyday, and hosiery. But the way this one particular lady would always sit, with her nyloned legs together, one ankle crossed behind the other, just drove me mad. Actually that same pose does today, nearly 45 yrs later!
As far as TV women, Daisy Duke wasn't the first, but she's the strongest memory I have of wanting to emulate her. Same with the ladies on Dallas...spending all day in their dresses, heels, and hose.

For me it was Annette Funicello ,she was my first big crush that I wanted to be her . I later named myself after her other than that also thanks Sears Roebuck Catalog and My mom was the picture of womanhood to me.
Hugs Annette

Same here Leslie! Loved the porn stars from the 1970's and early 80's. Plus Joan Collins as Alexis Carrington and all the girls in the 60's-70's B drive in films
For me it was my sister. My very first time I went the full en femme and went out, I walked back into my suite and looked in the mirror and saw her rather than me. My mother is a close second, as I also sometimes see her sometimes instead of me (family resemblance, I guess). They were my first impression, influence, and female role models.
I think Mary Tyler Moore and her best friend Rhoda some how these Women were just so Feminine .
my mother was one that never looked down on me playing with her clothes.
As far as ladies I admired, first it was Marilyn then for me Tina Louise, Elizabeth Montgomery and Barbara Eden were role models that I looked up to. Then later came the soap opera queens today I adore many of the cable news anchors I love those leg shots.
Seeing Debbie Harry in the video for Blondie's 'Heart Of Glass' made a deep impression on me. I wanted to femulate.

This mite be a little off the wall, but for me this is going back a few years it was Janet (Joyce Dewitt) from Threes Company. I loved both actresses, but for some reason she always wore coffee coloured pantyhose and always wearing a open sandal shoe and had a small petite foot, but on one episode I seen her slip and that's when it sealed the deal. Something about her legs would drive me crazy, still till today if I see a repeat it still sparks a fire. Call me crazy.
I just looked her up...That'd work for me.Originally Posted by Maria 60
wow good question.. im going to have to say playboy & hustler magazines.. they started me down the path that lead me to a high heel fetish... but just seeing how other women dressed in real life.. but for me its all about cocktail dresses and clubware.... I use to like to window shop womens clothing shops to get ideas.... I do like to dress a little ****ty and defiantly not my age
Madonna was mine, too. Growing up in the 90s, my first impression of Madge was the ever-changing appearances that she had going on back then. Something about one woman constantly looking amazing with so many different looks was amazing to me.
I think Mariah Carey was the first woman who made a big impression on my femme side.

Although I have done this long before I had ever heard of her, Katy Perry inspires me. I am attracted to her a lot, but at the same time, want to look like her!
