Just a thought I have been feeling lately, that it seems that it is almost more taboo in today's society to be a heterosexual crossdresser than it is to be a homosexual crossdresser, trans, etc. I feel as if it is more of a stigma for a straight guy to come out and say that they crossdress (for whatever their personal reasons or desires) than if someone comes out as a homosexual crossdresser, or as an individual in any stage of transition.
It seems media has embraced some of these distinctions but not the heterosexual crossdresser. TV shows include characters, major news stories are done, yet in many senses it seems someone who is going to a lesser extreme from societal norms is looked up on as "weirder".
I have to think from a statistical standpoint, there are numerically more heterosexual crossdressers that do not have a desire to continue beyond that position to either same sex experiences or transitions to a sex other than their anatomically born sex. Yet, that, likely larger number, seems to be lesser represented in media support.
I can't help but wonder why there hasn't been a TV show with a main character male who when he is sitting around at home after his day of work or on a weekend when he doesn't have to leave the house don's "women's" clothing and has a happy marriage with a knowing wife. Is it just too boring for the media to include? Or is there a bias that is unbalanced?
Love to hear other's thoughts on the topic....
