The Most Fabulous Airport Crossdresser I've Seen

 Hello There,

    Crossdressing in public is a daunting experience to many, the fear of being outed as a crossdresser is just too much of a risk. However to some crossdressers the absolute joys of being able to present as a woman in public override the fear of being outed. In fact it doesn't even matter to them, the desire to have a feminine experience overrides any fears of being outed, simply getting to be themselves is enough motivation. 

    One such brave crossdresser interested in being free to express herself in public, without fear of public perception is reddit user u/deeevuh (great username), also known as Goddess Lulu. She recently took a plane ride while fully crossdressed, and looked fabulous doing so! Wearing a frilly pink dress with matching pink handbag and suitcase she was sure to be noticed, but she didn't care! Saying in a reddit comment "I used to be so inside myself and robbed myself of really living my best life once upon a time.. these days I try to make up for all the lost time with a massive idgaf attitude, you have one life with free will so make it count". 

    After going through deeevuh's reddit comment's about her experience on the plane, I've done my best to piece together her thoughts: 

"Dressing up at home was fun and all but one day I had an epiphany , knowing I had to take my crossdressing a step HIGHER, 1,000km above the clouds higher. I traveled to Greece in October, and was dressed femme for the whole trip. Nobody questioned me at all. It really surprised me. I got a lot of compliments on my dress, shoes, hair, bag. I think they all knew, especially passport control. Passing through TSA  was terrifying! I was expecting to take off my wig and prove I was a man, hahaha but they let me slip on by. They double looked at me because I look so different as a man, I guess they could see certain features in my face or just assumed I was trans but hadn’t updated my gender on my passport."

    In addition to sharing her thoughts on her air travel experience on reddit, Lulu shared a series of images on her TikTok, where she chronicled her journey while crossdressed in the airport. See those images below:

    I audibly gasped when I saw Lulu used the men's restroom when the line for the women's was too long. That's when I knew she was one brave badass bitch! Not only is she taking an international flight while crossdressed without any fear but on a whim she's using the men's restroom! Damn she's cool! I wish I had even a portion of the gusto she does! Check out some pictures of her full dress below, as well as some triumphant selfies Lulu took once she finally arrived on the plane.

    Isn't her dress just amazing?! I can't get enough of it! Lulu looks so glamourous wearing it too! After arriving at her destination, Lulu went out for a night out on the town. To commemorate the moment of her getting to walk around a new country while fully crossdressed she took a video of herself:

    Of course sadly all vacations must come to an end and it would eventually come time for Lulu to fly home. However she wasn't going to waste another opportunity to crossdress on a plane! This time she wore a black top and white furred vest. Lulu never disappoints and yet again looks totally glamourous on her plane ride!

    Speaking of Lulu looking glamorous while traveling, this isn't the first time she's got all dolled up for traveling. Prior to her experience at the airport she also dressed up for a ride on a train, and the subway. Check out images and some videos from that travel experience below!

    Well, I think I can comfortably say Lulu is one of the most amazing glamourous and BRAVE crossdressers I've ever seen. The fact that she is brave enough to 1. Go out in public dressed, 2. put herself in very publicly visible situations such as public transit, and 3. do it all while look fabulous is nothing short of amazing! I know I'll certainly be watching Lulu's socials for more amazing adventures to come!

Ash Ketchum, Crossdresser?!

 Hello There,

    There is certainly no shortage of crossdressing themed fan art online, but perhaps one of the most frequently featured characters is none other than Pokémon's own Ash Ketchum! Ash was the Pokémon franchise's main character in the anime television series for almost two decades. With his go to catch phrase of "gotta catch 'em all" you'd think he'd be talking about Pokémon, not women's clothing! This post is the start of a new series I will be working on covering crossdressing fan art based around classic cartoons and media. So zip up those dresses and strap on some Poké balls because Ash Ketchum is gonna be doing some crossdressing, or should I say "Ashley Ketchum".

    Let's start out by establishing that there is actually precedent for Ash crossdressing in the original anime. Over his twenty year span as Pokémon's protagonist Ash did actually crossdress several times for one reason or another. Be it to avoid the clutches of the evil team rocket, or to compete in a girls only Pokémon league, almost every new Pokémon generation saw Ash dressing as a girl for one reason or another.

    Although often used for comedic effect, for those of us who were struggling with gender identity at a young age, it still left a lasting impression on us. Ash's crossdressing hijinks seemed to have had a lasting impression on many people it seems because there is a massive library of fan art depicting him crossdressed. He has even been dubbed "Ashley" by his fans, who see him as one of the most commonly associated cartoon characters with crossdressing. I know I certainly developed quite the love for "Ashley Ketchum" when I was young, because I was at a similar age, loved Pokémon, and could identify with a young boy trying crossdressing for the first time. So it's no surprise that many others have the same fondness for Ashley as I do.

______________________________________________

    Interestingly perhaps the most commonly featured dress in Ashley Ketchum fan art is one he never wore. While exploring the Sinnoh region he traveled with fellow Pokémon trainer Dawn. Dawn competed in Pokémon contests which were essentially shows designed to show off a Pokémon's beauty rather than using them to fight in trainer battles. When participating in contests, competitors would wear elegant outfits to compliment their Pokémon. Dawn would typically wear a pink dress with a white collar accented by little pink bows. This is the dress that Ash is probably most commonly depicted wearing interestingly enough. Perhaps it is the popularity of this dress that drives artists to depict Ash as wearing it, or perhaps it speaks to how popular Dawn was as a character. Maybe it's just an amazing dress. What ever the reason Ash has been depicted as being no stranger to wearing Dawn's iconic contest dress!

    In addition to Ash frequently wearing Dawn's dress, Dawn is frequently depicted as being the one to either encourage Ash's crossdressing, or help him along in the process. Again this is probably due to Dawn's popularity as a character, or perhaps its just because in the end most young crossdressers just long for a friend to dress with. But Dawn's role in the "Ashley" crossdressing saga is well represented.

    In addition to Dawn, Ash has had several female companions who have accompanied him across his journeys through the different Pokémon regions. To fan artists, it sure seems like there is no shortage of Poké-girls willing to indulge Ash in his crossdressing. His own mother Delia Ketchum even gets in on the crossdressing fun sometimes!

    It's not just Ash's female companions that want to get in on the fun however, many of Ash's fellow male Pokémon trainers have shown an "interest" in his Ashley persona. Granted unlike the Poké-girls, these boys seem to enjoy Ashley more for her appearance than the act of getting her all dressed up. Ash must make quite the convincing girl, because all the boys seem to swoon over Ashley!

    Ash certainly seems to have a lot of fun with his Ashley persona, and what could be more fun than dressing as Disney Princesses (ya'll know I'm a big fan LOL). Ashely just couldn't help herself and had to partake in some princess fun as well!

    Interestingly enough a modern trend of Ashley fan art is to pair her with the Jessie from the villainous Team Rocket! Jessie has gone so far with Ash's crossdressing that she is even beginning to call him her daughter!

        In addition to dressing up as Jessie's daughter, Ash has gone so far as to dress as his "mom" Jessie. Although Ash often seems to use dressing as his mother as an excuse to dress sexily, maybe some Oedipus Complex going on here?

______________________________

    Well there you have it friends, I've covered almost all the aspects Ash Ketchum's crossdressing fan art, or should I say Ashley Ketchum? He certainly seems to enjoy indulging in the joys of femininity, doesn't he! Given that throughout his tenure as Pokémon's anime protagonist he would periodically crossdress every few years, meant that generations of young viewers got to connect with a male character who wore women's clothes. For many, Ash may have been their first exposure to crossdressing, and with such a massive backlog of fan art online, the influence Ashley Ketchum has on many young crossdressers can not be overstated.
