Please read this whole post carefully before casting your vote
1) Of the above selections, which do you identify with the closest at this time in your life
2) Since some terms do not have dictionary terms. I have posted what would be considered the oposit for a term to assist you in making your decision decision
3) Some may feel there is not a selection that meets their particualr category, so vode None of the Above or Don't vote at all. Yes I understand that there may my someone who is an " Asexual Tri Gendered Genetically Enhanced Bio Boy Girl", which in itself would be really cool, but at this time I do not have a selection for you. Just remember this in just a poll.

As allways Thanks
Kelly :)

I honestly don't know where I fit. There's more going on than the clothes, but I have no illusions that I'm really a female, or could ever be, as much as I often want to be, and feel as I'm supposed to be, one.

In my case, it goes a tad beyond the mere desire to dress as a girl. I feel the need to experience a fuller range of humanity and to express from it, unrestricted by gender. If I woke up tomorrow morning as a girl, some sexual orientation issues would come up (as I'm only interested in women) but I don't think I'd feel any more or less like "myself". Thus I voted androgyne.

I'm a MTF crossdresser, transgendered, non-transexual, but with some transexual tendencies. I have a very well developed and nurtured affinity for feminine clothing and femininity in general. I keep this rather well masked as a man in my regular day to day life, as I present as a male normally, and live my life that way. I think about what life might have been had I actually been born female on a daily basis, but I do my best not to let it interfere with my life as a man, and as husband to my wife.

Clear as mud, no?

Crossdresser. I love the advantages of being an alpha male in the workplace and on the football field, whilst having the desire to show my girly side from time to time :daydreaming:

I voted none trangendered I believe that the crossdressing label should be seperate from the transgender and transexual labels and one with its self..

I voted transsexual MtoF. I'm probably closer to that definition, in that I've done things to better present a feminine image that the ordinary crossdresser would not do. The only things that are holding me back from transitioning completely are career and family.

I marked the M to F Transexual because to me it is much more than crossdressing. Even though I don't plan permanent body changes or transitioning or living 24/7 I think it is closer to where my mind is at when I dress.

I am not sure other than the fact that I am finally find myself happier to be me and who I am more than ever in my life. I chose androgynus because I can easily find myself being able to slip back and forth between male and female mode. I am very comfortable with either and enjoy both. I have never been the most masculine kind of guy and have identified more with the female within me that so greatly more often than not wants to escape daily. Now it is just easier and more fun to let her come out and play, maybe not as often as she and I want her to but having fun no matter what. I accept myself which is a very new concept for me and one that I have struggled with for such a long time.

I voted male to female tg because that is what best describes me.I will always be male but I feel so blessed to fulfill my female needs as only aTg person can. It took a log time come to terms with my needs and see them as a blessing. THANK YOU LORD.

I voted crossdresser and I certainly am one but it goes deeper than that. I definately feel that I should have been born a female. I have felt this way my entire life and have learned to accept it.

No doubts at all. I'm a MTF crossdresser. Wigs, makeup etc is simply so that I can go out without too many stares.
