Post by Anouk »

Hi everyone

I'm, Anouk, about 50 years old crossdresser far from Finland. I have been totally closeted till last november when I told my wife about Anouk. It was the best thing to do in my life (and hiding Anouk till then was one of the worst thing to do as well). Since then we have visited numerous crossdresser clubs as two ladies. And the most thrilling thin was our girly shopping and culture trip to Wienna on february. I'd like to go out also here in Helsinki but I'm too afraid to be outed which could harm my male career.

I'm quite short and slim so I've always been that skinny looser nerd. That's why it has been a huge experience to get some compliments about my appearance as a girl, first time in my life!! I like feminine style with some "street credibility". However I'm not at all passable, thanks for my not so feminine face.

Hey Anouk, welcome to the forum!

It's great that you have an accepting wife, and that you get to do things together. I hope that she gets as much fun as you do :)

About the way your face looks, there's almost nothing that can't be fixed with the proper make-up ;)

Hi Anouk,
Welcome, welcome to our group. Now the first thing you have to forget is "I'm not passable". Honey I am 71 and believe me makeup will do wonders for a girl. =D>

Welcome to the forum :) Glad to hear about your wife. I've seen Vienna too; it's magnificent ;)

Ty Letitia, it's really me. However the light and the angle are favourable in the picture, the real world reception has already been experienced in Vienna so I know the make up should be made by a magician :lol:

Hi Anouk. Welcome to the forum. Make up doesn't need a magician, it just needs practice. Now that you're getting out, you have even more help than you think. That's hwy there are make up counter with sales ladies. They can give you pointers and help pick the right shades for you. Naturally, the better half can also help.

Nice to have you join us. We girls can help with make up and dressing tips as well.

Hi Anouk--
I too think your avatar looks fine. I have begun going on Youtube to look for makeup tutorials, and it's going to take practice to apply what I'm seeing. There's help out there, though. Welcome to the forum.

Moikka Anouk :) Pistänpä vähän jenkkitytöille lukemista ja sulle terkut myös tänne :lol: Olen ollut rekisteröityneenä tänne jo useamman vuoden mutta eri nimellä kuin kotimaan foorumeilla ja piireissä. Takavuosina ei Suomessa ollut kunnollista tiittifoorumia ja Suomi24:n jutut ovat monesti aivan luokattomia. Tämäkin on vahvasti moderoitu foorumi, eikä amerikkalaiseen kulttuuriin ilmeisesti kuulu se, että ihminen mielipiteineen ammutaan heti alas, mikäli ne eivät vastaa omia näkemyksiä.

Terkkuja...
