Lorileah, I think you INFERRED something the OP didn't IMPLY - that a "real" crossdresser is straight. It was a poor choice to use that word, but Joanne tried to define what she meant by "true" in the following paragraph (did you miss that?). I don't believe it was INTENDED to be offensive. Joanne just wanted to know about straight crossdressers who embraced both their male side and feminine-while-crossdressed side.
I wish more of us would not just throw out questions with terms...sorry, make that LABELS.....that we have never agreed on their meaning, without defining, for the purpose of the discussion, the term. Transgender, for example. Do you consider yourself "transgendered?", that is, for the purpose of this discussion, having a strong internal identity, something beyond crossdressing but short of desiring to become a woman or believe that you are a woman born in the wrong body? This definition, as opposed to the umbrella term. Example only - please don't respond.
Discussions that degrade into label agruments unfairly steal the thread.
