Personally, I think there is a problem is we compartmentalize ourselves into two different people. My usual male self and Geena are like two intersecting circles, with the bulk of each overlapping. How I wish to look falls into the areas distinct to each circle. However, I don't suddenly like cottage cheese become I'm dressed like Geena any more than I stop wanting to lose a few pounds when I'm not. I have grown as an individual through exploring cross dressing, and my attitudes, likes and dislikes, and regard for others are part of who I am, regardless of how I present myself. The differences really lie in the presentation, not who I am.
