I make a pretty damn good looking girl!! sometimes.

[Lucy_Bella]

When I am not dressed I miss her ...How does the person you emulate effect your life..?:daydreaming:

[SuzanneBender]

She's always here just in a different candy coating. Effect? Whew, it would be easier to determine how she doesn't impact my life. One moment I love this aspect of my life. The next I despise it. I think about the only thing that my being transgendered hasn't impacted is my eye color?

And even that ... not if you start using Latisse. :)

[diannecourtney]

[AmiFL]

True.. I make a good looking girl... never... An ok looking girl is as good as I can muster most of the time.. And as well I feel like I am one in the same as far as when I am dressed up or not.. Kinda like a girl really is, I dress up every once in a while.. And the rest of the time I'm not dressed up.. But I am not a big "macho" man.. I am a bigger man but think of myself as just who I am.. And dressing completes me..

That's it! the transition achieved by CD-ing is essentially pretty candyfloss overlaid on my male self to give the appearance of femininity. This can be photographed to look nice, but is only skin deep.
Nonetheless I enjoy looking at pics of Maryesther, she has no difficulty looking prettier than my old drab self!...She's a lot younger, too.

[Rianna Humble]

I think that in the latter stages, the person I was emulating had begun to make me depressed and irritable (not good in a customer focussed role). Luckily that has all gone now that I have started my RLE and gone 24/7.

Edit: For those who didn't guess, for me the emulation was pretending to be a man

Incidentally, I always thought I would make an ugly woman, but several people have said I'm pretty - now I've just got to unlearn half a century of despising my appearance.

[Kendra (Tx)]

I think I'm prettier as a woman than handsome?, in guy mode....I garnish more attention as Kendra :o. ..More "looks", getting "checked out" by the "opposite sex" then "he" does...My ugly twin doesn't seem to warrant a passing glance from a female no matter how "put together" he is....Oh well.. :sigh: ...If I'm going to dress to the 9's...I might as well enjoy it AND get attention....:heehee: I'm not really sure if that's a good thing, but I'll take it as a complement to my femininity...

Michelle is always in my mind and my heart. Sometimes I need to watch her, because her little FLIRTY side shows up during my conversations with friends and business associates. They just think its my strange humor. Works for me.

The same thing happens to me all the time, when I am in guy mode women do not give me the time of day, when I am in girl mode the GG's just go nuts over me, I have so many experiences of women coming up to me and complimenting me, wanting to kiss me, touching me, I have been asked out by women when in femme mode. I have to admit I do like the attention I get from women when I am in girl mode.

[Audrey34]

That's how I feel on certain days. When I look in the mirror and go "damn, I look cute!" But there are other days when I'll look in the mirror and I want to cry. The confidence goes away and it's the old "fat guy in a dress" and "what the heck am I doing?" modes take over.
Guess I still have a ways to go before I can accept my female side completely and without question.

[sissystephanie]

When my late wife was alive and did my wig and makeup I was a pretty darn good looking girl. She was very good at doing those things. I am not, so don't even try! I go out as a guy in a skirt, or dress, and don't care!!

[Debra Russell]

I love dressing, and Debra is always present. I have three older sisters and I am the youngest and prettist:heehee: In guy mode I am very average women like me, as I have always gotten along with them and have had fun. I have guy friends as well. I would like to do more with girls as Debbie.

No matter what my twin is with me always and I wouldent be without.

You sure your name's not Cinders?

[MargaretJ]

Me too, and doesn't the vain old cow know it.:D

[Mistybtm]

:battingeyelashes:I try my best but do not think i could ever pass as one.
When at home I dress 24/7 the only time I am not is when I go to work or out, except late at knight :battingeyelashes:

[tashaly]

I think I'm way better looking as Natasha, and that makes me a little more confident and friendlier, which in turn makes one even more attractive. I try to think that I can be just as pretty in guy mode, but for some reason it doesn't quite work. Is that what you're getting at, Lucy_Bella?

[titus]

....but only from the neck down...imagine the body of Xena the Warrior Princess in tights, heels and a sports bra :daydreaming:

[kimdl93]

I doubt I could ever pass, but I do think I feel prettier when I'm dressed and made up. I try to be the same person all the time, but its easier when Im wearing a skirt and heels!

[Kathryn Martin]

I am a handsome man and I will be a beautiful woman. It is just a matter of time, a matter of when instead of if. For now I am working on my skin, my form and my behavior. I believe that passing is more about attitude and feminine behavior than about dress.

A woman in man's clothes is still a woman unless she is in transition FtM

How does the person you emulate effect your life..?:daydreaming:

A very interesting question, Lucy! And "emulate" is a very interesting choice of word -- "Emulate: to try to equal or excel; imitate with effort to equal or surpass."

My femme side affects everything in my life.

My joining Weight Watchers®, the food choices that I make, my exercise routine.

My time and effort at body maintenance including haircuts, haircolor, regular manicures, pedicures, eyebrow appointments; my life is a whirl of girly maintenance.

My social relationships, being a member of a congregation's lady's auxiliary and a women's social club, often gathering with the women at social events rather than with the men, regardless of how I'm dressed.

My daily schedule and planning, where I go en femme, where I go en drab, who I can be with en femme, who I only see en drab, which restaurants and shops belong to "her" and which to "him."

My budget!

Being a "real girl" would be better, but otherwise I love my life!

[Lexine]

When I'm not Lexi I don't really think about her all too much. I think it's fair for me to say that I love both sides of me equally and I would be sad if I lost the flexibility to be either. However, I treat Alex and Lexi as distinct individuals with their own lives, even though they share one body. There are aspects of them that crossover, however they have distinct mannerisms and traits, but the same value system and sexual orientation.

Kinda Tash, But ....for me ( in guy mode ) I guess I try and be handsome ,not girly ,pretty or femm. I don't feel above average in guy mode and I really don't care as much ( fuss ) over my appearance ,like I do when I chose to dress.. I have found my habit grows everytime I dress to get the look down. I sometimes wonder if it's a game I play with myself on how well I can do ( I fail terrable ) constant maintanace in the up keep shall I say..

Feel bad I do for the GG's in that area because it's a never ending battle...Not for anyone else but for yourself and how good you feel about your appearance..

[AKAMichelle]

That's an easy one. He / She are one and the same person. You are never able to escape her.
