How much time and effort goes into convincing people you're a lady, when you're just a man in a dress, doing your best to look pretty?
I happened to cross paths with two cross dressers yesterday and was immediately sure that no matter how long their hair was, and how pretty their dresses looked, they weren't fooling anybody.
Keeping my distance I noticed one of them looked to have the kind of stubble I could only dream of, having not yet mastered the art of facial hair growth myself, while the other one had the muscle definition in his/her calves that would bring shame to most blokes in a gym.
Waiting for the lights to change, I couldn't keep my eyes off them as I counted in my head the number of different things that made it obvious they were male, E.g Adams apple.
Then I changed perspective and began to count the number of things they had on which may also be worn by the average female. Dress, high heels, handbag, pony tail the list goes on, but it didn't have me believing for a second that I was looking at a couple of strong, facial hair growing women rather than blokes in a dress.
So how much work actually goes into transforming a male into a believable looking woman? Even if you have convinced most people you're a lady, you'd probably be a hideous looking one at that, so is it ever really worth the time and effort?

Okay Brad thats valid, but many of the cross dressers don't actually try to look like a lady, the try to look like a man in a dress. Its the whole thing about being your self and if every one else hates you the fuck you. To think that they're trying to convince you they are a woman is almost an insult to them, saying that they're desperate enough to try and fool some one into beleiving they are of the oposite sex so they can get some. Its nothing about sexual connotation, more just a symbol of their free will, an expression from with in. All people in society have their own form of it, Emo's, Punks, Business men even. And i beleive that the last thing they really want people to do when they dress this way is judge them, they more want people to accept them, take in what they are really saying by wearing a dress.
