Since I am a crossdresser, then yes. Having said that, I do occasionally cringe at media representations of us, or if one of our sisters does something to bring "dishonour" upon us, i.e. perpetuate some of the negative stereotypes. Of course, people are entitled to dress and behave in whatever way makes them happy, within the law, but I hope that most of us try to be ambassadors if we are out, and change peoples' perceptions in a positive way. I know when I was Esprit, a few of us chatted with a group of teenage girls, who had collected outside the hotel, and tried to answer their questions honestly and appropriately. Same thing with staff or members of the public we met whilst out and about. I like to think that our "normality" and style of interaction helped changed their view in a good way, and therefore made CD-ing just a little more socially acceptable to them, and us.
