The plain fact is that they don't insist on dressing. They have a requirement about living full time in your true gender - that is very very different. The clinical gender specialists know about people putting on women's clothes and other devices to go out then reverting to a male role, what they are looking for is reassurance that you are living as your true self (even in jeans & tee shirt on occasion) and not flip-flopping.
