I Want to Break Free
Someone wrote…
For a rock-themed fancy dress party, I really wanted to dress as Freddie Mercury in the “I Want to Break Free” video — being a girl dressing as a guy dressing as a woman might just about express my gender identity nicely.
What’s your experience?

When I wear dresses (I’m female-bodied), to me it’s drag. Transtransvestite power to ya!

Aww, that describes so much. XD Happens to me whenever I cosplay Pavi Largo, too- A female-bodied questioning transman, dressing like an extremely feminine man. Everyone still calls me “he”.
It makes me feel all warm inside, but unfortunately if I’m in cosplay, I’m in character. I can’t tell them how much it means. I can, however, leave a big lipstick mark on their cheeks.

Seth – A female-bodied questioning transman, dressing like an extremely feminine man with a girl’s face, LITERALLY, no less.

I do this too! I sometimes dress like a drag queen just so that people can assume I am male even though I was born a female, and love being feminine even though I have a male mind. Just dressing like a normal girl doesn’t cut it, people simply then see me as a girl instead of a feminine guy.

@Seth Repo has to be one of my alltime favourite films :-)
@Kate female clothes feels like drag to me, too – transtransvestite is a term I’ll have to remember! I think I look more like a guy when I wear a dress than when I try to pass.

Meta-Trans? Trans-Trans? No, I think “awesome” is the only term that applies here. No, wait “AWESOME” is more correct.
