I have heard it proposed more than once that fetishes are psychological conditions that manifest themselves as the only responses certain people can have to stimuli that they would otherwise consider repulsive. I personally have never fully bought this claim. However, it is no secret that clowns — which will likely be remembered in a thousand years as one of the worst creations of modern man — are commonly fetishized figures, and I cannot help but wonder if fetishizing clowns is the only way some people can respond to their horror. The mind is capable of doing many incredible things, like transferring pain into pleasure, stress into desire, and fear into eroticism, so while I cannot justifiably make the claim that all fetishes are the mind’s roundabout method of dealing with revulsion, I do wonder why clowns have emerged as such a surprisingly common fetish. I became a part-time secret girl in my teens. I was fortunate that physically I wasn’t very masculine and I was quite small in height, I was thrilled about this as a boy! I tried to keep myself physically in favour of being feminine but trying not to make it too obvious. The party (= orgy) which I organized to celebrate my return to Monte Carlo went on for the whole weekend! My decadent guests and I were able to indulge in several changes of costume, in between the various lewd and licentious activities that took place. Here I am captured wearing one of my alternative “Marie Antoinette” costumes. And I can report that males on the Riviera are just as fascinated by bustles and crinolines as men seem to be everywhere else!

I think my inner quest for men to desire me as a woman is not to do with sex but all to do with seeking verification. Part of me dreams of being able to look like a woman and so being desired as a woman by a man is the ultimate verification of the illusion I am attempting to portray.For myself the french maid dress is one of the essentials of my wardrobe. It was also one of my first dresses I desired to wear. Like many CDs, I have more than one. I wear the boots because I enjoy the sexual power they give me. Many men don't like the boots, but the ones that do REALLY get turned on when a "woman" wears them.

I have always been a very straight guy and considered this a pretty weird request, but we both had drinks earlier, so it was a little easier and I finally gave in to my wife’s suggestion. I now understand why most women love pantyhose— they felt so slippery and nice against our new sheets that I was really taken. I loved the way they felt and have slept in them ever since.

Typically at this stage I will apply my make-up at this point and an urgency begins to take root, the awareness I am committing to try and be more feminine than masculine grows exponentially and I have to force myself to be patient and take things steadily. I adore the moment I finally disguise my beard shadow with make-up and this induces a considerable confidence boost that pushes me forward to complete my transformation. I will admit a big thrill courses through me at this stage and I can at times, feel rather light headed. I often need to calm myself before proceeding. Despite living as a man I have a desire to dress up and appear as a woman. I won’t deny I have some angst about this. I fear being discovered as a cross-dresser and I worry my actions are offensive to women. I admire women, and I truly adore them. I’m sure many people would see my actions of attempting to emulate women as a weird thing for a man today. Well, part of me is definitely transsexual. Since childhood part of me has felt more girl than boy. I never acted on this feeling though in terms of pursuing a physical gender change transition through surgery and hormones. I felt girlie but I also liked being a boy. I was attracted to feminine clothing and had strong desires to look female as a teenager. I was envious of girls when I realised I had no breasts developing, facial hair started growing and my body began to get hairy. For awhile in my early teens I was distraught.

I have found my cross-dressing is a mixed bag go emotions and motivations. Deep down I am transsexual. I don’t feel I want to change my current life though so transition is not something I would pursue. I have a love of make-up, female clothing and hair styles so cross-dressing lets me experience that. I have a love of female impersonation from my youth so cross-dressing fulfils that aspect too. I also also love the adventure of daring to try and pass myself off as a woman. To date, I feel I fail in that aspiration but I enjoy trying to achieve it. The most wonderful man in the world works at this company, and they're lending me out to him for two days as a temporary secretary. Can you tell how happy I am? He's such a sweet, caring, sensitive man. I can wear a dress like this around him and feel completely safe. I know that he'll pay me a compliment that will make me feel beautiful, feminine, and all warm inside, not like those other men who make me feel like a piece of meat. It's not true that we women don't want compliments. We want the right compliments. Two weeks ago, I tried an experiment to see if I could wear pantyhose with a pair of shorts to the mall and to find out if people could tell. I wore a pair of Silk Reflections in the Travel Buff color that you recommended to go with any skin tone. You were so right. Not one guy even looked twice, but two pretty young sales ladies I knew could tell I was wearing hose because I heard one comment, “Great Legs”. I think the shine gave me away. We understand that one size does not fit all - and if you’re taller than most women, then thigh highs are the way to go. Unlike pantyhose, hold ups (which are another term for thigh highs) will not restrict your movement; they sit comfortably on your leg. At VienneMilano, our sizes range from small to 3XL. Here’s what one of our male customers has to say about our hosiery: The beautiful thing about thigh highs is that you can choose to show the band or hide it underneath your skirt or pants - either way, this is your sexy little secret. For many, wearing thigh highs gives him or her an extra boost of confidence.

In other news, M. Battaglia of the Monaco Police Department has been quite apologetic about the recent antics of his counterpart M. Boucher from the Marseille Criminal Investigation Bureau. I enjoy dressing up as a woman and love experimenting with different make-up styles, different wigs and trying out different types of female clothing. For me cross-dressing is an adventurous and fun pastime. Why do I do it? Because I genuinely love appearing as a woman. I like it not just for the fun, but I enjoy the collision with my upbringing and the social conventions we are all supposed to conform to. I think women’s clothing and female appearances are much nicer than those of males. I have always yearned to wear make-up and be feminine. Being born a boy presented some challenges to this aspiration. On deep emotional level I would prefer to be a female but I’ve lived all of my life as a man and I like the life I have. I’m not willing to give it up so dressing up is my outlet for freeing the woman within. I do genuinely love to dress and become female and this photo session was one I really enjoyed. I never like having my photo taken as a man yet once I'm in make up and a dress I'm totally into it and I feel very comfortable pretending I am a woman. I think this day involved a really great, complete makeover, and I felt again like a beautiful young woman. It was maybe even my best makeover to that point. What would you think if you saw me? Sometimes cis women wear the french maid outfit for either parties or as celebrities for promotional photoshoots or a part in a movie.
