By that I mean I am doing my best to look convincingly female and I want to try and make my female alter-ego seem real by my appearance and behaviour and responses and reactions be those of a woman. I see it as a form of performance which I greatly enjoy. It's after church, and hot in Florida, but taking pictures, excite me so much....I just love to take pictures. She said "Angie, you are a nut". I have found it difficult to give up my short dresses and skirts as I am always thrilled to be wearing them but as I say, my focus has shifted now.

It’s going to be difficult.I’m very excited to go down this path though, very excited indeed!.

Lady Lavinia (an Oxford graduate herself, and a full member of the club) greeted me, dressed in what has become our “off-duty” Sodality uniform: a cream silk blouse, a knee-length tweed skirt, and sensible three-inch crocodile heels. We eagerly caught up with each others’ recent escapades, over a very indifferent lunch – the Oxford and Cambridge has employed, for years, the very worst chefs of all the top London clubs.the next day, I returned to the original location and got a red tutu and more tattoed pantyhose. They so hot. Poor hubby was very embarrassed during our lingerie shopping trip yesterday! My husband was choosing intimate apparel for me to wear for the enjoyment of other men - including Lord Belcher, Lord Trent, the Duke of East Anglia, and my regular companions Sir Harry Rakefield and Sir Henry Cobham!

I am not concerned by this as some women I work with actually wear more foundation than I do! Real women are seen every day wearing heavy foundation so I’ve placed myself in that group of women.

I’m not suggesting dowdy clothes or we all wear jeans. There are very feminine women who wear dresses and skirts and make-up but look lovely rather than to use a phrase ‘overcooked outfit combinations’.

Then, as she looked, it winked at her, and so declared itself to be an eye; and a small face began gradually to grow up round it, like a frame round a picture. It has been over eighteen months since I last spent time as a woman and I am missing the experience.

This rambling stream of consciousness accompaniment to a picture from my last session is a proxy method of me expressing my fame self.
