A big shot who didn't wear female clothes usually referred to a character in a novel who wore female clothes and had a female appearance and gender characteristics. These characters could be normal men or fictional gender-changing characters. The second dimension referred to a fictional two-dimensional world, usually created by anime, comics, games, and other media. The characters in the 2D works usually had exaggerated appearance features such as big eyes, small nose, pointed chin, etc. Therefore, cross-dressing big shots were not a type of 2D but referred to specific characters in novels who wore female clothes and appeared in the works.
