    We all know that several people can look at the same words and derive different opinions of the motives for saying them.

    Some people in this thread believe that Krisi accuses crossdressers of being criminals. Others, including me, believe that Krisi’s main point in her response to Helen (albeit with a bad example), centered on whether any behavior is naturally occurring or whether it is psychologically driven. Since there are two ways to take Krisi’s words, the best solution is to ask Krisi to clarify and confirm whether or not she does equate the crossdressing to criminal behavior.

    And to be fair, Krisi should clarify this publicly since she has been publicly accused of saying something horribly negative against the crossdressing, which could harm her reputation here and cost her friends. If she says again that she does not believe that crossdressers are criminals, then she needs to be believed. To do otherwise would be accusing her of lying.

    Also, the very gist of this thread is precisely a determination of whether the crossdressing is naturally occurring or whether it is psychologically driven … and any behavior can be used as an example, i.e. do I love to draw because I was born with a propensity for drawing, or have I learned to draw and grew to love it.

    Finally, I don’t think any of this can be answered even if we look at all the available scientific evidence. The fields of genetics/phsychology/etc are not developed enough to explain the full complexity of human behaviors and the nature vs. nurture debate rages on - although there was a meta analysis done last year comparing all the twin studies from the 1950s to now, and they did determine that overall, it is 50/50, even though some specific traits are more nature (i.e. depression), while others are more nurture (i.e. bulimia). They have not discovered anything about the crossdressing though.

    For those interested in the study, google "Meta-analysis of the heritability of human traits based on fifty years of twin studies", by Polderman, Benyamin, de Leeuw, Sullivan, van Bochoven, Visscher, & Posthuma. This study examined 17,804 traits among 14,558,903 twins from studies among 2,748 publications. It is the most comprehensive analysis of the causes of individual differences in human traits thus far.
