Hope,
I could still be looking for a purpose, the identity has fairly well set itself. Cross-dressing itself is not a crime at all, the "crime" I wondered if I had committed was in not going hardcore all the way, which to some is almost criminal and conveys a more negative image of us.
In 2001-2002 I spent a lot time researching why I am wired the way I am. The only answers that I've come up with are the look, feel and how I feel when I am dressed combined with the fact that sometimes it scratches and itch I can't other wise reach.
