There has recently (and, let's face it, perpetually) been some discussion on whether crossdressers oversimplify women. Another issue that keeps coming up is that we may assign women characteristics that we then emulate, even though the characteristics are not really feminine. I am talking of course about the "housekeeping when dressed" issue.

This problem comes up in other communities as well. I am a gaming enthousiast and amateur game designer. There is a video series I watch called "extra credits" that discusses issues in videogame design. They have a video that I think deals with the same core problem that we are dealing with here: LINK.
They are looking at something very familiar (creating a meaningful and realistic female character) from a very different perspective. It seems that crossdressers are not the only people who have problems in this area!
