Hi I'm Abbie
The photos of me are not my best work as I much prefer being the other side of the camera taking pictures of the girls I've done makeovers for.
So, I don't actually take that many pictures of myself compared to how many I take of other girls.
Those you see tend to be either taken by friends who are not used to my camera or snaps from nights out.
In 2010 I co-founded the Drab or Dress Transgender peer support/social group which I co-ran as a volunteer for seven years.
Sadly the group meetings have now come to an end.
And in 2011 after much encouragement from others I started my Makeover and Dressing service.
As well as the support group I've been at many different meetings with different organisations to help improve services for and understanding of Trans people.
I've also helped out at 4 LGBTQ youth events run by the Metro centre when they have asked me to come and do makeovers at their events and I have done a few talks for other organisations so I'm quite active in promoting Trans rights /understanding and educating the general public.
So there is not much that I haven't come across on the trans spectrum over the years.
Like a lot of you I guess I've been cross dressing on and off since I was a child, and my 1st memory was being in a party dress when I was about 4.
Although the 1st time I crossed the gender line was at even earlier age of about ten seconds when the midwife told my mum she had a baby girl before "correcting" herself and saying I was a baby boy.
10 seconds !!! beat that biatch ! lol
Then I found this site and my new life slowly started.
I used to feel ashamed of who I was and disgusted at myself but I'm not any more.
It all changed on Oct 5th, 2009, when I went for my 1st makeover which was one of the best days of my life the day Abbie was born and now Abbie's birthday.
Since that day I have made loads of new friends and I have come out to most of my old friends, and they have been mostly cool about it and a few have been very supportive.
Although since first writing this I have realised a lot of friends who seemed ok are no longer in touch that much if not at all.
I lost count of how many times I have been out dressed since then and love going out to mainstream places along with Trans events.
I'm not 24/7 and I live most of my life as a guy.
I know it can sometimes be confusing when you discover the inner joy that being a girl can bring.
The pink mist descended on me when I started going out as Abbie and for a while I thought I wanted to be a girl for real and considered going down that route.
Although I wish I had dressed properly when I was much younger if I had I think I might have had the op because as a young guy in my teens and early 20's I wasn't confident in myself and the happiness of my girl time when I did start dressing fully brought could have made me take that step which I think would have been a mistake for me.
So I'm happy to chat to any who are confused as well.
When I'm dressed as a girl I didn't used think of myself as a guy in a dress or a transvestite I thought of myself as a girl this has now changed and I'm happy thinking of myself a part time Tranny as well but do understand those who don't like the term and I would not use that word to describe others.
I'm not a "Girly Girl" even if I do like dressing up I'm more a one of the lads type girl.
I don't dress for any sexual thrills I dress simply because it makes me very happy, and I like being a girl sometimes and also if I'm honest these days I get a buzz from people's reaction and love the attention.
Many look at my pics and assume that I'm going to be a girly girl but I'm much more of a Tomboy as even though I like to dress up and try and look pretty now and then I still like my guy stuff too and can often be found with power tools in hand doing DIY or out riding my motor bikes.
I'm into motorcycles and travel and have ridden my bikes round Australia and to Dakar and back in N/W Africa and hope to see more of the World.
Oh, and can't stand racists or bigots of any kind.
And by the way I prefer the term cross-dresser to transvestite as I just prefer how it sounds but to all the people out there that think they are different -- Latin trans- + vestite, form of vestiō (“I clothe, I dress”) (as in English vestment, vest). Literally, a "cross-dresser.
Although I increasingly like the term gender tourist as I think it describes what I do quite well.
I made it into the top 40 babes a few times but was stunned when I later made it to number 2 especially considering how many girls on this site are so much more beautiful than me.
At the time I was quite new to dressing so it was nice and a bit of a confidence boost.
Just don't take it too seriously as it's only a bit of fun and as we all know many of the best looking girls on this site are never even in there and many don't even have their ratings turned on and being a nice person is much more important than looks or making the top 40.
I have absolutely no plans to transition myself or live 24/7 as a girl as I like being a guy as well.
Oops forgot my appearance I'm just over 6 ft without heels brown eyes medium build although not fat or over muscular.
Hair used to be long dark Auburn sometimes Candy Apple Red, but these days tends to be Blonde most of the time or whatever colour wig I decide on the day.
A big thank you for all your lovely messages in my guest book.
✮ PLEASE READ ✮
Last but by no means least TRANSSEXUAL GIRLS ARE REAL GIRLS who have just had the misfortune to be born in the wrong body for their gender.
So treat them how you would treat a genetic girl or how you would like someone to treat your Mum /Wife / Sister/Girlfriend or daughter and show them some respect as they haven't had it easy in life.
PS I'm not TS.
