I sure this may have been done before but what the heck..

I have always been told that I look like my father. To the point it has been said that he is just an older version of me.
Now when I am dressed I never give it much thought. But the older I get the more I see my mother in the mirror. Since she passed
years ago it always brings a smile to my face to see her looking back at me.
I have her lips and her chin.

So to the point which family member do you resemble? Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, the dog.
Also does it change when in en femme ?

As a male, I most resemble my grandfather on my mom's side. But when I become Ceera, I look a lot more like my sister. :)

I remember early on I bought a short wig. Sort of a bob. I looked in the mirror, saw my sister! Never wore it again! LOL

I have often been told that I resemble my mother in looks and actions. However, my personality is more like my father's.

I'd say I still look like my father more and you would never find any lipstick on him. My wife says his stamp is even on me a Jaylyn. I think my dressing though did come from my moms side.... Lol maybe some really mixed up genes.

I have always been told I look like mom, and there is no denying it is true. I haven't really picked up a wig yet or makeup, but did one of those apps where you can apply makeup and hairstyles... it is almost creepy how much the after pic looked like my mom! Guess that's a good thing?? Lol.

I resemble my father in male mode - short hair, male clothes, male shoes, athletic build

I resemble my mother in female mode - long hair (wig), make up, female clothes, female shoes

Hi Katie, No DNA test needed, I'm my father:daydreaming:,
But while dressed depending on
which wig I'm wearing some times I see my mother or my sister in the mirror.:hugs:

^What Heather said goes for me, too -- it's kinda scary.

Depends on who is looking. My wife thinks I resemble my mom. My eldest sister says that as a young man I looked just like my paternal grandfather at the same age. I see attributes from both sides of my family.

I look like one sister when I'm in boy mode and my other sister when in girl mode.

I look like none of my family but me and my older sister have identical noses. That's about it. Also I'm the tallest in my immediate family and one of the tallest in both sides of my family. My moms side does have a lot of tall women some of them my height and short men mostly. My dad's side has a lot of short men and women. Average male is probably about 5'7", average woman about 5'3". I'm 5'10"...My mom is actually taller than my dad too.

I dressed one time with a different color wig and it resembled my sister a lot. Took me off guard at the moment. I still have a picture from that time and I look at it once in a while. I only have one sister and sometimes wonder what my mother would say if she seen it.

Thankfully, I resemble my mother more than my Dad. My father was considerably broader in the shoulders than I am.

As Don, I'm more of a mixture of both my parents. As DeeAnn, I am more like my late mother; sort of a wider version of her facial features.

I had a cd gal pal hang over the house one night for a gal pal sleepover, she took one look at the family photos and was like OMG you and your sister are twins !!! You just have the hair flip on opposite sides LOL

My older sister and I have similar looks even when I'm not dressed, I mean, except when I have my facial hair haha. While I'm dressed and wear similar makeup, we could easily pass for twins in my opinion.

As a male I don't think anyone but lately I seriously just though not long ago OMG, I'm beginning to look like my mother, seriously! Not so bad, she was incredible in her day...but I'm still a guy, sort of...

Everyone tells me I look like my mother and when I dress, it's more so. I think my mom looks great for her age so I take the comparison as a compliment.

I took after my moms side of the family. My dad was big boned and broad shoulders. I'm thin and like my late mom. But i do look a bit different than her when dressed. But I do see her resemblance.

I do not look like my father at all. There is very little resemblance between me and my brother and sister, both of whom look like my father. On the other hand, my face is almost a carbon copy of my mother's face, except very slightly more masculine.

When I was young and had long hair, little facial hair.
I looked just like my mom I just wish I had her figure now. LOL

My mom sadly died 4 years ago, and I am so proud that everybody says that I look so much like her

I always resembled my late mothers side of the family but with a wig on now I just seen sister, which is a shame as my mother was elegant and stylish, I've got a lot of work to do.

My dad. People who knew him when he was younger, even though they had never met me, knew who I was. I had gone to a funeral of his AA sponsor almost 20 years after my dad had died; there were lots of people there who had known my him. It was kind of nice to meet the people who helped, and who he helped, to kick the demon booze out of their lives. And to answer any questions, yes, some were there at my dad's funeral, but I was so exhausted taking care of all the details that I didn't get to really talk to anyone that time around.

I look like my father when in male mode, to much so.
When I got dressed up aa few weeks ago, I saw my mother in the mirror.

Several years ago, I had my one and only makeover at Glamour Boutique in Las Vegas. I did not share any guidance with Amy, the owner/make-up artist, and just let her do her thing. Since I had no make-up nor a wig and eyelashes or outer garments of my own (Paula only dresses in and brought her own lingerie, breast forms, and heels), she selected a the wig and eyelashes, then let me dress in a skirt and blouse from the consignment section. I watched excitedly as my transformation began and progressed until my female image revealed itself. To my surprise (and with some disappointment), the woman in the mirror resembled Paula's older sister. Not the showgirl I so wished to be :brolleyes:

So, for my next makeover (whenever that may be), I will definitely share with the artist the kind of person and woman I want to be. :love:

I look like one sister when I'm in boy mode and my other sister when in girl mode.

Me, too! In fact, about a week ago, I was mistaken for one of my sisters. I was in guy mode at the time.

I resemble my mother. The first time my aunt saw me dressed as I walked by her she told me not only did I look like my mother but I walked like her, flats and heels. A few years ago my daughter told me I looked like my mother so much she thought it was a picture of her. My sisters have always teased me that I look like my mother and should have been a girl. They know I CD.

Some people feel like they look like "a man in a dress," but when I look in a mirror or see a picture of myself, it is my father in a dress. Makeup heightens my resemblance to him big time, unfortunately.
