Attack Of The Clones: Please Don’t Follow Fake Accounts That Claim To Be Me
It was inevitable I guess, but on TikTok, some troll has started an account that sounds like me, has claimed it’s my back up account and has taken my videos and shared them on this bogus account.
Join me on TikTok
Following my Instagram shut down, and after looking for an alternative, I have decided to go with TikTok. This is far from perfect as TikTok is VERY conservative, and I have been shadow banned before.
How To Get Your Creative Works Removed From Piracy Sites
I just got a message from an author friend, Julia G Slater, that her work, mine and other erotic authors in our community have had their work uploaded to an illegal site. What to do?
Instagram Is Dead, At Least For Me
After getting banned at 41k users, I setup a new account, from a new phone with new number, new name, and still, within minutes, got taken down again. I am exhausted attempting to merely exist on a platform that actively hates anyone who does not fit their narrow definition of nuerotypical and heteronormative values. So for me it’s time to move on. Where? I am not sure yet.
Well gurls, it was inevitable. At 42k followers, Instagram banned my account
Well gurls, it was inevitable. At 42k followers, Instagram banned my account. No warning, nothing, immediate and no right to appeal. I will start a new account of course. What is worrysome for us all is the power big tech has to shut anyone down for vague and clearly, right wing puritanical reasons. I had made sure that my most recent account way pretty vanilla this time around, but alas, that was not enough.
Episode Twelve: Saurora, Sexologist, Dominatrix, Escort and Adult Content Creator
In this flirty, playful episode of “Gurl Talk with Jenny Raven,” Jenny slips under the metaphorical covers to get up close and intimate with the fabulous Saurora, a tantric healer, erotic empowerment sexologist, pro domme and sex worker, with an enormous heart for queer and disabled-inclusive intimacy.
Satisfying my deep desire to live my true feminine self… by entering a virtual world, by Samantha Jenkins
Second Life is a visually rich online world created about 15 years ago. It is in essence a social media platform but without the scrolling text screens, comment replies and like buttons. Instead, this world is comprised of vivid landscapes, cities, multiple continents, sail-able seas, and planets both realistic and fantastical. It is inhabited by mostly human characters,
Episode Eleven: Jedy Deady, Crossdressing Techo Musician
Get ready for a fabulously flirty episode! Jenny Raven cozies up with the dazzling Sofia Anderson, a cross-dresser from Australia, for a playful, intimate chat about all things feminine. From favorite lingerie and sky-high heels to the delicious dance between masculine and feminine energies, these two share their journeys, fantasies, and the cheeky thrill of embracing their true selves.

It’s girl talk with a twist, and you’re invited!
How do you tell your wife, girlfriend or partner that you are a lifelong crossdresser?
This is the question I get asked the most. And it’s an understandable one. Most people have a reaction to discovering their partner is a crossdresser. It’s oddly a kind of final taboo that remains ‘shocking’, when in reality, it’s pretty harmless. It’s also a label that is individual to us all. Some of us are at the trans end, others at the occasional ‘fun in bedroom’ end, and the near infinite rainbow colours in-between.
Why I Do What I Do As Jenny Raven
I began writing erotica during the pandemic as a kind or release valve for the ‘she in me’. Being locked down, I had next to zero private time. Add to that the pressure-cooker of the pandemic, and it’s no wonder Jenny demanded to come out to play. Those of us who have been lifelong crossdressers, living in the shadows of guilt and shame, will identify with this I am sure.
Supporting Artists In The Trans, Erotic and Kink Space: Meet Paul Delamare
The best way to support any artist, is to buy their art, then share it online. Paul contacted me recently about his books and I have since has a chance to check them out. Heartfelt, eclectic and as Paul would describe himself, ‘very Marmite’. Some people love them, others not. But that is less important than the act of creation for an artist. Here’s what Paul had to say about his journey and art.
Episode Ten: Sophia Anderson, Delightfully Delicious Lady From Down Under
Get ready for a fabulously flirty episode! Jenny Raven cozies up with the dazzling Sofia Anderson, a cross-dresser from Australia, for a playful, intimate chat about all things feminine. From favorite lingerie and sky-high heels to the delicious dance between masculine and feminine energies, these two share their journeys, fantasies, and the cheeky thrill of embracing their true selves. With giggles, confessions, and a dash of daring, Jenny and Sofia explore self-acceptance, sensuality, and the joy of living authentically, heels, lipstick, and all. It’s girl talk with a twist, and you’re invited!
What Drives The Internet Trolls?
As my social presence has grown, astonishingly so in some ways, so have the negative comments I get daily. Over 99% of comments are lovely, playful, sometimes naughty, sometimes downright filthy. All good. But that one in a hundred toxic comment means that I am check all the time.
Crossdresser Community Survey
Hey Beautiful, Jenny Raven (your favorite trans erotic storyteller) and Emily Letts (our delightfully therapeutic kink witch) are cooking up something delicious, a new online platform for crossdressers and anyone who likes to blur the beautiful binary lines. Everyone is welcome in our home.
Episode Nine: Erotic Author Helene Noire
In episode nine of my podcast, I interview erotic author Hellene Noire about our journeys as writers of erotic fiction. We discuss Hellene’s inspirations, creative process, and the challenges of publishing erotica, including navigating Amazon’s restrictive content policies. Our conversation explores the differences between masculine and feminine erotica, the importance of authenticity, and the vulnerability of sharing personal fantasies.
Meet The Author: Naomi Matthews
How would you describe the niche and themes of your work? My niche is gender swap transformations that leave men confused and in increasingly arousing situations until they realize they are happier in their new bodies than their old ones. The themes revolve around men learning what makes them happy. Perhaps not surprisingly from my work, but I think that for most men, that thing is sex, and becoming a woman doesn’t change that. It just makes it easier and more fun for them as women.
How I overcame the fear of becoming the woman I knew I was, and have always dreamt of being
The morning of the shoot, I was petrified. My anxiety was so intense it gave me chest pains. Thankfully, my partner had agreed to come with me, something that proved essential to me actually making it to the studio. She tried to calm me as we set off, but even when we parked the car, I said I couldn’t go through with it. She reassured me again…
Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut
‘In girl world, Halloween is the one night a year when a girl can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.’ We all know the quote, but the question is ‘what would YOU wear?’
My Podcast Journey And What I Have Learned
I have just recorded my tenth podcast episode and what a journey I have been on. As of writing, eight are live on the podcast, and two are still being edited to be released in the coming weeks. What I have learned is that we as a community have remained in the shadows far too long. And by community, I mean (and by no means exclusively at all), older crossdressers, millennials and upward, but mostly GenX’ers, like me.
Episode Eight: LadyC and Me
This episode was such a joy to record. Sitting down with my dear friend LadyC, who has an endless curiosity about human sexuality, felt like two friends sharing secrets over coffee. We laughed, we reminisced, and we explored a subject that has shaped so much of my life: crossdressing.
I Made a Movie About the Girl Inside Me
So I made a film. About my childhood as a boy, but with the spirit of a girl inside me. I didn’t intend to make this little film. It happened by accident. Using AI, I have been making lots of clips for Instagram and TikTok…
How I Bared All, My Soul Kink with Emily Letts
I started my podcast about six months ago, my first recording being with trans porn star Jennifer Lunden. I don’t mind admitting I was terrified. I was on a journey of self discovery, self revelation and Jennifer would be the first active participant in the adult industry who is trans that I interacted with. Of
Episode Seven: Anna, The Crossdressers Wife
On this episode I talk with Anna about the night her husband revealed his desire to cross-dress and how that shocking moment grew into deeper love, intimacy, and acceptance. Together we explore her journey from fear to understanding, the spark it reignited in their marriage, and the supportive space they created for others through CrossDressed.uk.
The Cognitive Dissonance From Social Media Companies is Wild
I just had another video removed from TikTok for breaking community guidelines. While I do understand social media platforms want some regulation, the execution does seem random, punitive even, but most of all, completely unaware of it’s own rule breaking. All of this on the back of my socials continuing to grow at a massive rate. I am close to 10m views in the last month and one video getting over a million views.
How My Husband Became My Wife… And A Whole New Chapter Opened
I got to online texting with the rather amazing Jane, who runs a page on Instagram called sissy__wives696 and I asked if I could share her story here… so here it is! Here’s what she emailed me… I became an ally by accident. My husband Sam and I got married just over five years ago. We
Meet Catherine Noir: A Novelist In Waiting… and Nylons

Episode Seventeen: The Five Stages Of Rachel Spring
Rachel’s wife discovered her cross-dressing years ago – and the hurt and disapproval still shape how Rachel lives today. In this candid conversation, she describes dressing only behind a locked door, the thrill of a past visit to a BDSM dungeon, and the fear that time is running out to experience more.
My Podcast Returns! Who Will Be My Next Guest?
I am thrilled to share that I am back podcasting after a forced hiatus due to, you know, adulting! Who will be my first guest? I am choosing to interview more of the people in our glorious community, to hear their stories, their truths and of course, their take on my books.
I have a wild, imaginative, very specific and deliciously erotic sense of sexual fantasy.
Jenny on the thrill and nerves of living out feminine fantasies, why the details matter, and how a simple cheat sheet helps partners say yes.

Rocky Horror, A Personal Memoir And Tribute To The Original Frank’n’furter, Tim Curry
With the very sad news of the passing of the icon, legend and king, or queen rather, of six inch platform heels, Tim Curry, I thought I would share as tribute, an as yet unpublished chapter (and unedited!) from a new book. About my own Rocky Horror adventures as a teen, then the seismic impact it had on me. Tim, we will never forget you.
Why I Write Erotica by Phoebe Pearl
Sissy hypnosis is a sub-genre of erotic hypnosis built around the fantasy of sissification, the deliberate progressive shift from a masculine identity into a more feminine, often hyper-feminine one.
I was so turned on, I immediately wanted to dress as her and… what happens when gurls take the survey
One question I asked at the end of the survey, a free-form question, was this. How did you feel answering these questions? The results are startling and drawn from just under 1,000 entries (and growing daily).
Hard Won: Top Ten Erotic Author Pitfalls and Mistakes to Avoid, by DK Masters and Jenny Raven
A few days ago I posted an interview as pat of my authors series, with author DK Masters. Such a brilliant read. She shared the mistakes she made in her career and what to do about them in the original interview, but I broke them out here. Here are her top five, and mine to make it ten!
