I've heard about this, idk though, from what i've read about it after they are done you don't come off as a girl, you look like a drag queen.

I've perused the book "Miss Vera's Cross-dress for Success" and it didn't seem to be aimed at drag. I just didn't like the style of the writing, so I left it at the store.

Still, some of the tips seemed worthwhile.

To be honest, I have read the whole book either. I was considering buying it and spent about 1/2 an hour looking through it. I think she does do some of the more sensational stuff, but I think I'll pass. It's not like I can afford a trip to FL anytime soon, anyway.

If she came to the SF Bay area, I'd think a little more seriously about it.
