I would like my hair to be less grey, blonder (or maybe auburn?). I do love the smell of Miss Dior perfume and several others. I would love to have a super uplift bra, if only they were offered bigger than 38C (although I do know of and use strap-extenders and/or locate the odd obscure plus-size supplier somewhere). I have promised myself I will keep eating my 5 a day and will only consume sugar-free cereals so I can become a fab glam beach babe, and be a summertime mermaid… as it happens. I would buy stunning frocks from those designer stores mostly featured in Vogue, colour mags and newspaper supplements, if they were offered in more than a dress size 14 and at sensible prices. Yes, these female-oriented ads do work and have a cumulative effect on me.
ONLY TROUBLE IS – I AM MALE!
In my view, never in human history have we been bombarded with so much marketing and promotional material. Yet nowhere in the online, screen and advertising media is there any in-depth comment on the effects of massive advertising on those for whom it is not directly intended. For example – often repeated female interest adverts seen by males. I do suspect that they must be a strong if often subdued influence on we blokes; perhaps why beneath out macho outdoor images, so many of us long to try all those feminine items. Depending what one might consider to be a crossdresser, maybe 1 in 10 of us indulge? Difficult to estimate, so could be much higher. It must work to a lesser extent the other way – female to male – too. But the female of the species in western culture has all the beautiful stuff!

EASTBOURNE PLAYBOY BUNNIES SHOOT
I was beginning to wonder after my last Eastbourne photoshoot, if people were starting to get bored with them, as there were only 3 of us including Richard who took part in the Zombie one.

BREE FRAM - Blazing trails to build a stronger military
U.S. Space Force Lt. Colonel Bree Fram will be remembered as a trailblazer for a transgender-inclusive military. This was not so obvious when we met about six years ago. However, she's well on her way to earn that distinction with a public track record of advocacy and leadership.
Sophie's 20 years later
In 2018 I was crowned Miss TLi and I won it on my first attempt - and first Eastbourne event for that matter - dressed as "Minnie Mouse", and after being a judge in 2019 there was something that stopped the following 2 years' events taking place... I can't quite remember what that was though??
VICTORIA'S SECRETS
Actress VICTORIA GIGANTE has, many times, appeared on stage and screen; and her photographs have adorned gallery walls around the world - but she feels like she hasn't done enough. As her new play 'Miss Philippines' is about to hit London's West End, WARREN CHRISTOPHER HALLETT meets this multi-talented sensation to find out why - and then some.
Project 5.0
Like for many others, the Covid years were more difficult in more ways than one for me. I had lost the occasional night out dressed, the ability to dress regularly, and had even more uncertainty of what the future held.
