It is not just the clothes but more so what goes with the clothes that are problematic for women.
A woman may not feel she can count on a feminine man when things become difficult and than there is the sexual component.
Women do not object to the clothes "only" but everything they symbolize and imply. It can be an affront to her sexuality and to her sense of what makes up normal relations between intimates.(husband and wife)
Women do not care about crossdressers per se but being married to one.
