BEING A BOW BELLE

And the most obvious style is the fabulous little-girl dresses worn in the 1950s and earlier for events and parties, by small or early-teen girls. Especially if you are old enough or have studied historic fashion enough, to recall such clothing? In juvenilistic fantasies, the male crossdresser tries to project the persona of a child aged perhaps between six and twelve, in the most flamboyant of children’s party clothes from the past. .

Back in the famous Anniversary Issue of Transliving, no. 50, I wrote a three page item about dressing for Junior Age Play, titled “Autonepiophilia”. So for a more detailed explanation go back to that copy, (pages 52-54). Those of us who engage in dressing as little or sub-teen girls are only very occasionally featured in TLI, or any other TV media for that matter, let alone amongst the mainstream pages. Not totally absent - the latest example being Beatrice (pages 14/15, issue 57) who visualised her junior-girl self in various fantasy situations such as in Wonderland. Occasionally we are been pictured in the one-time printed versions of Rose’s Repartee.

So I did it once, what next? Well after seeing the results from my first shoot I just had to try it again, but I wanted a different perspective this time. I’d seen the offer to apply for the free shoots, and thought I’d try again. As before I explained that I’m trans (pays to be honest I find) and again I got a positive response.

It’s snowing outside. I find snow is strangely magical even as an adult. It slowly descends muffling the sounds of life, bringing peace and chaos in equal measures. It always puts me in a reflective mood. I won’t start at the beginning; most stories like mine kind of start the same.

Working as a Transgender Performer
You’ve all seen the typical view of a stage sat in the audience, looking at the bright lights. On this occasion, I was privilege to a new view - from behind the curtain. I could see the packed theatre, the judging panel including celebrity guest judge Graham Norton, and another performer on stage. I though, was concentrating on something else so much, that I was surprised when I realised a topless woman in a Donald Trump mask from the previous act was standing next to me. This meant it was my time to take my position.
