    A more "honest" avatar

    Hi girls,

    After boring you all for so long with my last avatar which was taken at a dressing service I thought it was about time to change it for a more "honest" one, taken at the weekend.

    Nowhere near as good or as fem but Im working on it.

    Re: A more "honest" avatar

    First time I've read anyone referring to their avatar that way... Certainly appreciate the intent!... A good angle view, good light and simple easy smiles should help such (honest) intents (IMO)... Hope others emulate!

    It's a terrific avatar, Gemma -- nice to meet you!

    Hi, Nancy, I swear that I've seen you someplace before.

    Thanks for all your kind words girls. You all really are an inspiration to me. I will be having a makeover when I make my debut next month. I know I should really diy it but a girl has to look her best, especially on her debut.

    Thanks Joyce. Its only thanks to sites like this one that I have finally accepted who I am. When I first joined about 6 months ago who would not have persuaded me to post a pic on here for love nor money but it is becoming addictive now. As I live on my own and am still in the closet until next month then this is the only way to show Gemma off to the world.

    You're right, of course

    hi Gemma

    You look lovely! My avatar is not me (it's an actress you may well have seen whom I think is exquisite) but I have no wig or makeup and that's the only reason it's not me.

    Hugs

    Thumbs up

    Well, Gemma, you have more moxie than I can muster... I'm not ready for my misbegotten mug to scare little children and the beasts of the field...

    Lisa, your av: That upper lip looks familiar, is that Rachael Weisz?

    Marge, you being a cop makes you the Man, which makes me the woman. And I have no interest in that!

    ...besides occasionally wearing the underwear, which, as we discussed, is strictly a comfort thing.

    Silly goose, of course that's not me in my avatar![/size]

    Hi Lauren!

    Just the other day I was thinking this actress and Rachel Weisz look similar -- at least in certain pics! That's Alexis Bledel (she plays Rory on Gilmore Girls plus she was in Sin City, Tuck Everlasting, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants etc).

    Thx for noticing my avatar! ::

    Hugs

    Well done, it's a huge step. I've always been "honest" and although it was nerve-wracking to start I quickly got over it.

    Here's hoping it snowballs into even more daring things I'm kidding, but there is an element of truth. Each step I took made me feel more free, and so I just kept taking them. Now I'm in the early stages of transition and wearing female only clothes to work!
