Make-up and manicure sets for cross-dressing otoko no ko to look their best

One of the most slippery and ambiguous of terms in Japanese sexuality, otoko no ko sounds like the word for “boy” but is written with in hiragana and with a final character that usually means “daughter” or “girl”. In the simplest of definitions, it’s a type of cross-dressing where boys dress up as girls.

This doesn’t mean you are a shemale or a transexual in the western way of thinking, but it does bend the usual lines between gender, sexuality and appearance.

There are lots of clothes for cross-dressing cosplay, including stockings, bras and dresses, negligees and even wigs. Hell, you can even get a special AKB48 cross-dressers’ costume set!
