    Mirror, mirror

    Does anyone else see their mother looking back at them when you are dressed and made-up. Wow! It's like a flash-back. I know I have my Mom's legs, but now it seems like the whole picture.

    Am I weird or what?

    Hugs,

    My mother died in in 1960. So I don't have any pictures to compare to.

    However My 90yr old grandmother says I look just like my mother.

    Yes, I can see alot of my mother in me when in guy mode. When I get all dressed up and I can really see her in the mirror. I just wish I had her real D's built in though.
    I am in love with the most understanding GG and my biggest fan. Jennifer, I love you!

    What a great topic!

    Yes, very much so. My mom and I share alot of the physical features except of course as the last person posted her huge chest! Always was jealous!

    My wife always tell me I look just like her too.

    RIP Mom! Love You and Miss You, Always.

    My wife tells me I look a lot like my mother, and for that I thank her.

    Then she tells me my nose is too big. And for that I just have to laugh, because it's true.

    Don't see much of my mother. See a bit of my sister though.
    If your not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.

    Absolutely!

    I have always admired my mother's beauty, elegance and femininity and she was my role model. From my very first times of dressing, when I used her clothing and makeup I felt amazed how I looked like her.

    And I'm so glad for that!

    I'm with Nancy, I often "see" my younger sister's face reflecting back in the mirror. At least she was the cuter of my two sisters

    Esp. with light/minimal makeup, as for outdoor/sporty activites & daytime outings. Bunch o' MAC products seem to reduce the similarity LOL

    cheers,
    Paula

    Yes, I seem to look a lot like my mother. I have a photo or two where I think that it is she in the photo. Even in "drab" my ex-wife said that I looked and talked liked my mother and had many of her mannerisms.
    Hugs, Carole

    I don't see it. Maybe it's just me though. I am tall and my mom is short. She sis love heels and looking feminine so I get that. But I don't think I look like her I will have to compare pictures ( I think I look like the milkman)

    I look exactly like my mother, even when I'm not dressed... Though fortunately I haven't seen her reflection in the mirror when I am dressed. I probably just need to notice it once, though, and then I won't be able to stop noticing it. THANKS CATHY J.

    Not me. If anything, I look lik what my dad would probably look like if he were to CD (scream at the thought of such a thing). At best, I might look like my grandfother on my mother's side. That's as close as I can ever get.

    If I looked like either my mom or my sister, I'd have to pick one of two choices:

    1) Kill myself
    2) Completely give up crossdressing forever


    Fortunately, I look completely different when I dress. In fact, I look better as a woman than either of them... and no, I'm not just being cocky.

    I have the exact same facial features as my Mom did. There's a picture of her in high school with her hair a bit shorter, and she looked exactly like I do now. That's not to say she looked masculine in the least, our facial structure is/was identical. Sometimes when I look in the mirror while dressed I think I look a lot like her which is kind of sad since she passed away.

    Last Halloween was the first time my wife had seen me completely dressed, and from the back she said I looked exactly like my sister

    Hi Mom

    When I have my long blond wig and glasses on and look in the mirror
    I just want to say hi mom.
    With one of my brown wigs on sometimes I can see my sister.
    I guess we don't need a DNA test.

    Yes.

    I was always told I looked like my mom, and when I saw younger pictures of her you could really see it.

    HELLO NO!!!

    I love my mother, but she was not a very attractive woman. I don't look a thing like her (not even in her younger years before I was born) and DO NOT WANT TO.

    I thank God that I do not resemble her when I'm en femme. If I did, I probably wouldn't dress up. lol

    To you lucky girls who's mothers were a bit more attractive, I'm sure it's a welcome reminder of years past. But not in my case.
