This might show my age a little but I always wanted to dress up as Wonder Woman (I used to pretend I was Wonder Woman when I was young) or Princess Lea...p.s. the Sailor Moon outfit is adorable!

I never wanted to dress as Wonder Woman or Princess Leia. I would wear them if got outfits for free, but they're are plenty of other characters I'd love to dress as.

I do have to admit, I had thoughts about the slave outfit from RotJ.

I do plan on buying the Salior Mercury costume soon. it's a good thing Salior Moon was so popular.

Some of the other stuff I wanted would be a wedding dress, prom dress, and a french maid outfit; mainly the one from fredricks of hollywood since the style is the sexiest and cutest.

ANY cute looking maid from basically any anime artwork or anything.

Cute, girly, fun.

That, and leotards, tutus, old fashioned formal dresses with corsets and ESPECIALLY petticoats.

Especially...well. No especially. So, like some Victorian lady, like cute anime girls, and like a ballerina. I have the body for none of those.

Well, since you asked, back when Lynda Carter was Wonder Woman, I thought about that costume(but not with any of the other actresses). Some time ago, I always liked Judy Garland's portrayal of Dorothy Gale. But the main character would be Marilyn Monroe's character's dress and everything in the 'Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend' number from Gentlemen Prefer Blonds. The pink strapless dress with the bow, the pink opera length gloves, all the jewelry.

Oh, Andrea,

Actually, I think few of us have the bodies of the girls that model those outfits. That's why there are closed doors and open imaginations. ;)

Sorry to hear that, I'm glad I was born naturally slim though. I forgot about ballerina, I need to get me a nice pink dress and a tutu.

Almost any of the classic dresses from the Academy Awards show. Black and long, preferably.

You know me, a classic broad for sure! :P

There are many women's styles that I would love to wear, but I am not there yet. Basically, styles tailored for very shapely women are still out of my reach. I think you know what I mean :)

I always wanted to dress up like Sailor Mecury from Sailor Moon. She's so cute.

I wish I:

1.) Didn't have leg hair shadow (after shaving) so I could show my legs off that much.

and

2.) Didn't have erroneous equipment that prevented me from wearing mini-skirts.

Grr... *dreams on*

I'm still hunting for that perfect "little black dress". My legs are shapely and shave well and my feet would look great in a pair of strappy black heels with dark blood red toes. I'm always on the lookout for that perfect dress to pull off the sophisticated cocktail party look...but nothing has been right yet.

Holly Golightly (Audrey Hepburn) from Breakfast at Tiffany's. Cute and sexy at the same time.

And while it's true that many of us don't have the bodies (shape, hair, skin color, etc.) for these fantasy models, many women don't either. So don't sweat it - we all do what we can. The important part is feeling good and having fun!

Me too!

I wanted to be Wonder Woman when I was little. I guess that isn't quite the question you asked so to get back on track I would like to wear an Elizabethan Gown complete with Farthingale and corset. I would need a couple of maids to help me dress and it would be pretty hard to breathe and move around but Oh So Elegant. :D

I was watching E! (or one of those mind candy cable networks) last night and they had one of those top 10 or top 25 lists and this one was the top sexiest science fiction women characters on TV (just a tad too specific, but well).

And the top two just happened to be two of my favorite TV dress-up role models. #2 was Jeri Ryan as 7 of 9 (Star Trek:Voyager) and #1 was Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman.

I have to admit I always get a kick when the narrator says something to the effect that these women were in the imagination of most 12 year old boys. They were in mine sometimes for that reason but mostly for a completely different one.

Ah, those images!

I was given an antique wedding dress (1908) shortly after I started my transition I could fit in it at the time but can't now. I plan on getting married in that dress, it's so beautiful!

Okay, I guess this shows how far I've come in the past year . . . I've been kind of fixated on Trinity in the Matrix Reloaded, especially in her assault on the Agents' building where Morpheus was being held in TM, and the motorcycle highway scene in reloaded. I don't have a Ducati, but I did just order a made to measure leather "catsuit" on Ebay this week, it will be here in about a month. I totally can't wait until the weather's just right, and I can slip on the suit, some breast forms to fill it out properly, some high-heeled boots, and go for a two-wheel ride en femme, leather-fetish style.

I've looked at, and even tried on some party dresses at Marshall's, but haven't yet found the right one (best time to go is after the New Years' holiday, when they get the remainder shipments in - I like being girly just as much as getting leathered up :^) I'll write when the suit comes in, hopefully I did all the measuring correctly!!

Kisses, KM

I have it all except the shoes... Size 14 in Ladies shoes is almost impossible to find....When you do it is usually with rediculously high heels ( I am 6'2" B4 the elevation)... Have always liked boots... especially western style... Goes well with Denim... I don't dress all that feeme....Not cause I don't want to.... But because you Have to do what the other women do to fit in... One thing I have learnt is not to treat Clothes like a competition with genetic Females, they get really Catty and nasty.... If you let them win... they feel sorry for you and invite you into the sisterhood.... Well that is the theory anyways.... AND SO far it has worked for me.

Regards, Tiff.

      Seems like a reasonable agreement.  Seattle stays out of Texas, Texas stays out of Seattle.  Weird that the Seattle hospital had a business license in Texas... 
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Seems to me the time and cost is already being spent....on lawsuits.  And schools are absolutely flush with cash, at least around here.  They get enough property taxes, they need to learn appropriate use of funds.  Buy a few less computers and a few more bathrooms, and spend less time on athletics and I'd bet you a hamburger that the issue would be solved in a year.   To me, it seems like the whole bathroom thing is like lancing a boil or a cyst.  A sharp initial pain, and done. People are just resistant to doing it.      I think I could solve most of it...but politicians get too much press off of this to want it solved.   1.  Universal use of individual, gender-neutral, private bathrooms 2.  Universal use of individual, gender-neutral, private spaces for changing athletic clothes 3.  Emphasize co-ed rather than gendered sports.  Focus on physical activity, good sportsmanship, and having FUN.  Lifelong enjoyment, not just competition. 4.  Ban for-profit athletic programs at highschool and college levels, and ban betting/gambling related to athletic programs at educational institutions. 5.  Affirm parental rights consistently, rather than treating it like a salad bar.  That means permitting gender-affirming healthcare with parental consent, AND prohibiting schools keeping secrets from parents.  Adopt the "paperwork principle."  If it is on paper, parents 100% have a right to know about it and be informed on paper, including names/pronouns if such are documented.  If it is verbal only, it is informal enough to be overlooked or discussed verbally if needed.

      It would work better, but the issue will always be time and cost, unless a school district is building a new school.  Districts everywhere are short on infrastructure funds, so it's not a realistic solution in most cases.   Carolyn Marie

      I have always thought that the solution to the bathroom question (as well as improved bathroom quality/privacy for everybody) would be individual, gender-neutral, locking bathrooms.  Not this wacky thing we insist on doing with stalls.  It wouldn't take much more space, really.  And it might actually work better.  Ever notice how there's often a line at the door of the women's room, but plenty of free space in the men's?  Yet the men's and women's bathrooms are usually of equal size/capacity?

      I'm going to have to stop staying up so late at night...  Its after midnight, so technically morning.  So, Good Morning, y'all.   I got to go to work with my husband for the last two days.  I'm working on the graphics stuff for his company, so he said that nobody would really mind if I hang out.  I usually stay home, but its kind of nice to be somewhere different for a little while.  I spent part of the day at one of the company's installation sites... beautiful weather, so I worked on my laptop sitting under a tree.  And I learned something new - it is amazing how electrical wires are installed underground.  They're put in PVC tubes, and actually pulled through.  By hand!  Apparently a machine would risk breaking the wires somehow, so I watched a line of men literally playing tug-of-war with hundreds of feet of wire.  It was like something out of an old movie - my husband leading a call/response work chant and everybody pulling in a rhythm.    It does give me a bit of self-doubt, though.  Like, if that's what "real men" are doing... maybe I'm a poor-quality imitation

      Can I just say quickly re the bathroom question, how come no-one ever seems to suggest building more gender-neutral toilets?

      With the onslaught of bills targeting trans kids in the US and the current attempt to radically curtail gender-affirming treatment for kids in the UK I think you could just as easily ask why are things so hard for trans kids. Given the volatile political situation around them, I am pleased to hear there are still services attempting to help them.

      @Mia Marie I agree that it seems most of the focus is on Trans Youth.  And maybe that is in part because of protecting Trans Youth from the political environment, and to give them a chance to transition at an earlier age.  Many of our generation have been cloistered for most of our lives by societal exceptions and I think that has made it more difficult to be Visible ... until Now. So I guess my answer is ... Be Visible and seek out, or even start, support groups in your local area.  Planned Parenthood does provide Gender Affirming Care and therapy in most U.S. regions (and they take Medicare!).

      As a registered CA voter I would be HAPPY to vote against this bill ... BUT as @Carolyn Marie mentioned it has little chance to make the ballot.  Hopefully this will put the Death Knell on the bill.   wrt Parents Rights of notification.  I would agree if there was potential harm to a child, or if the child was involved in potentially harming somebody else.  BUT, that would not be the case in the preponderance of situations.  The decision to Come Out to one's own parents should be up to the individual child only.  If the child does not feel Secure or Safe in their household then it should not be up to the State or School to make that determination. If the child did feel safe and secure they would have probably already come out.  If they haven't ... then the situation seems obvious.  Protect the Child, not the System.

      Great news!  We ARE starting to receive more public support and visibility in opposition to these types of horrendous and wasteful bills.

      Nice to meet you @mattie22 , and Welcome! Your feelings are very normal.  I felt much the same at the beginning of my Journey.  But, in fact it is a 'journey' that is unique to each of our individual lives.  There is not a specific or pre-determined destination.  That's up to you to discover as you find your way. You already received some great Encouragement here.  I hope stay with us, and you will both discover and contribute.  Deeps breaths ... one step at a time
