Susanna Says

We all agree that the TS's carry things a bit too far when they go for the operation, but in our own double life we also perform a few tiny operations in order that our physical appearance may better project the girl-within when she steps out of the closet. Take for instance the shaving operation. This can range from a minimum (just the face) to a maximum (the whole body, arms, legs,

armpits, etc...). Taking this operation one step further we run into the "pluckers" (Susanna among them). Tedious and time consuming, true, but it does get rid of the shadow - allows much longer periods of dressing and permits a much lighter make-up job which in turn means more realism.
