I am happy to share with you today Vanessa’s testimony, accompanied during her visits to the studio by Jérôme.

Their relationship simply illustrates the very essence of support: Luc, through his discreet but essential presence, offered Vanessa silent backing, thus demonstrating a solidarity as reserved as it is impactful.

Moreover, Vanessa is not the only one benefiting from Jérôme’s support. Jérôme also shows selfless kindness towards others.

This beautiful dynamic between Vanessa and Jérôme invites us to reflect on support or “allies,” reminding us that it does not always manifest through grand gestures but can just as well be found in consistency and discretion. Jérôme’s testimony will be shared very soon.

It is a call to recognize and cherish the subtlest forms of support, those that form the foundation of relationships and enrich lives in meaningful ways.

Here is Vanessa

Vanessa: “I don’t like my masculine physical shell”

Can you introduce yourself? Age, gender, family situation, profession, city.

Hello, I am Vanessa, I am 42 years old, a single cross-dresser. I work as an agricultural and earthmoving driver near Cherbourg.

How long have you wanted to feel like a woman, what was the first “signal” of this desire?

Since my childhood, I have not liked my masculine physical shell in all that it represents. On the contrary, I find the female body very beautiful.

Is this desire occasional or permanent?

My desire is permanent, but life means that, for the moment, I cannot live my life as a woman as often as I would like.

Why this desire, what does it bring you?

When I am Vanessa, I find great pleasure in seeing myself in a mirror, an incredible calm and serenity.

Vanessa: the will to live

When did you decide to take action, to cross-dress for the first time? On what occasion? What did you feel?

The first time was in 2017. Before that date, I thought I was not normal for having this desire to be a woman.

I decided to take action after a hospitalization where I thought I was going to die. This first cross-dressing made me realize the life I now wanted to live.

Do you have fears about society, your family, etc… any apprehensions, any embarrassment?

Yes, I feared losing everything: family, friends, work, like most of us. Today, our society has evolved and, of course, the path toward acceptance by everyone is still long.

For my part, my embarrassment decreases little by little each time I am Vanessa, with wishes I fulfill, like today after your makeup.

I entered a shopping center, which had been a desire for a long time.

What are the next steps in your feminization (if any), or desires you haven’t tried yet but would like to?

My desire is more of an important decision: that of my transition.

Two encounters with Jennifer and Vanessa asserts herself more and more

Why did you call on me, and what did I bring you at this stage of your life, if I brought you anything?

This first meeting in September was an incredibly happy experience.
I became aware that I could be as I dreamed of being.

The return to reality was very hard, in addition to professional troubles, a consequence of a suicide attempt, a stay in a rest home which led me to make this transition decision.
The second appointment with you confirmed this desire to become a full-time woman for the rest of my life.

A big thank you to you, for your kindness, your smile, your care, and your magician’s talent with your brushes.

What anecdote can you tell us following this session? Or how did you feel after this session? What did you do right after our meeting?

As previously mentioned, a feeling of finally being myself!
Like many certainly, I posted photos on various websites, sent them to friends who know my secret, and the immediate response was compliments, “Wow, you are gorgeous.”

Who are your allies?

Vanessa feels a deep sense of satisfaction and fulfillment when she can live in accordance with her gender identity.
This feeling is highlighted by several aspects of her story.

The moments of joy and calm that Vanessa feels when seeing herself as she wishes to be reflect the liberating and fulfilling power of self-affirmation.

The recognition of her identity, confirmed by her environment and reinforced by positive experiences like makeup and public acceptance, contributes to her well-being and mental health.

This underscores the importance of support, as seen with Jérôme, but also of recognition and inclusion for people who wish to assert themselves or live in a gender identity that allows them to simply live their lives.

By the way, do you know someone who supports you? I look forward to reading your responses in the comments.

Jennifer
