    I am second oldest boy but I have seven younger brothers. My dad is also from a very large family and years ago (early 60's) his oldest brother was arrested by the police for being dressed as a woman in a public place,

    Third born male of four, so not fitting with the idea which Leah was quoting.

    However I found a paper from the Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry Vol. 38, No. 5. pp. 543-551. 1997 By Prof. Kenneth Zucker and others titled "Sibling Sex Ratio of Boys with Gender Identity Disorder" with a different conclusion, that does square up with my own situation.

    I'll quote from the abstract:

    "Sibling sex ratio (the ratio of brothers to sisters) was calculated for 444 boys with gender identity disorder (or with behaviors consistent with this diagnosis)." using data "from several researchers with expertise with this disorder and from the English language case report literature between 1938 and 1995". This suggested that "Among the probands with at least
    one sibling, the results showed that boys with gender identity disorder had a significant excess of brothers to sisters, 131.1:100, when compared with the expected secondary sex ratio of 106:100. The excess of brothers replicated a previous study by Blanchard, Zucker, Bradley, and Hume (1995), in which the sibling sex ratio was 140.6:100. Further analyses showed that the probands were born later relative to their brothers than
    they were relative to their sisters.
    "



    So.......who is correct? Are these two points of view incompatible? It seems so to me

    p.s Perhaps the "let out clause" in reconciling these two views comes in that Leah's is talking about cross-dressing per se, and the study by Zucker et. al is about those with "Gender Identity Disorder". Maybe someone would clarify if cross dressing always implies G.I.D or not. I suspect the answer is "not"

    That fits me perfectly. Eldest brother, brother, brother, sister and then me. Apparently, my Mother wanted a second girl to round off the family. I would've preferred a 2nd girl too!

    Trend?

    I'm the oldest boy with a sister and 2 brothers but as far as seeing a trend, keep in mind the title of the thread. I clicked on it because it applied to me. How many passed it by because it didn't apply to them?

    This another new factor. In my family as well as being second boy the brother to sister ratio was 450:100. Oh and I'm also a leftie.

    This is proving to be interesting. So far, it looks like this straw pole is confirming the statistics of the original study. Not sure what that means. Coincidence or something else?

    I'm the oldest in my family. 3 younger brothers and a sister. I really doubt any of my brothers are CDers.

    I'm the eldest son, but my sister is the oldest. I'm also the only son. That also makes a difference.

    Question

    Oldest of 4 and right handed. (b,b,g,b)

    Before anyone jumps to any conclusions, some distinction should be made and corralated to the different types of CDers. At least transgendered vs. fetish CDing. "Nature" vs. "Nurture", etc.

    The problem with any results drawn from Psychology studies based on review of patient populations is that they are not double blind. They use people who have experienced enough distress in their lives that they have presented themselves to the Mental Health System. They can only guess at the rest of the population who are not that distressed by our CDing.

    The first page in my college statistics textbook said: "There are three kinds of lies. Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics."

    Most likely

    I am the oldest child, I have 2 younger sisters. Many of the CD's i've met have mentioned that they are also the eldest... interesting.
