But Lady Chablis impressed me with her forthrightness, sometimes caustic frankness but mostly delightful insistence in being who she really was.

But my favorite is a little unusual, Julie Andrews in “Victor, Victoria”. In the movie, she portrayed a female singer pretending to be a male singer crossdressing as a woman singer.

I would love to see a program of some one who wanted to be a crossdresser and dealing with those around her

Then Tony Curtis and Jack Lemon – and especially the last line of Some Like it Hot – Nobody’s perfect!

Really my first memory of feeling like a girl on inside. Definitely a soft spot for BB. Thanks Jamie!

Baroness - AnnualRegistered On: June 26, 2019Topics: 12Replies: 259Has thanked: 930 timesBeen thanked: 1123 timesMy memory might be a little fuzzy, but I remember going with my wife in January 1983 to see Tootsie, at a movie theater in San Angelo, Texas. I was still in the Navy, assigned temporary duty at Goodfellow AFB, attending a cryptology school.
That movie was a must see for any CD, and Life magazine had done a detailed story on how Dustin Hoffman had to prepare for each day’s shooting of the film. It was fascinating to see photos of him wearing all the proper female undergarments, beautiful clothing, shoes, getting made up by Hollywood experts, and finally seeing him appear as a very convincing looking female, as well as sounding like one.
It was also frustrating for me, since I was not in any position to cross dress. All our household goods, which contained my female wardrobe, were en route to Hawaii, which was my next permanent duty station.
My supportive wife helped me make it through this stressful period, brought on by the stress of not being able to cross dress and the stress of attending a very difficult school.

Although my vote from those on the poll was Tony Curtis. He / she(?) played a great role in Some Like It Hot.
