1 " I know girls who pine for it. They like to play dress-up and pretend being Vor ladies of old, rescued from menace by romantic Vor youths. For some reason they never play 'dying in childbirth', or 'vomiting your guts out from the red dysentery', or 'weaving till you go blind and crippled from arthritis and dye poisoning', or 'infanticide'. Well, they do die romantically of disease sometimes, but somehow it's always an illness that makes you interestingly pale and everyone sorry and doesn't involve losing bowel control. "
― Lois McMaster Bujold , Komarr (Vorkosigan Saga, #11)
2 " You're no better. Playing dress-up like you know right from wrong. Who made you the fucking hero?I did. "
― J.D. Cunegan , Behind the Badge (Jill Andersen, #3)
3 " Judge that boy if you must; for debauchery, for objectifying innocence... but before you finalize your verdict, oh innocent reader, I beg you to scan again that last stanza. What you and I overlooked in our cloud of perversion and nasty objectification was the unrestrained joy of a little girl playing dress-up for the very first time. "
― Jake Vander-Ark , The Accidental Siren
4 " I have a dress-up chest at home. I love to create this fantasy kind of thing. "
