Given the number of views, it seems this topic is never going to die. Although I had posted previously my thoughts on the postings, some of the respondents really did not get my viewpoint.

Years ago, before I had an inclination to engage in cross dressing, my wife and her cousin chatted away at the kitchen table. I was not intentionally listening to their conversation, but, it was also obvious neither were interested in keeping their conversation private. Cousin related how her best friend and coworker was divorcing her husband, because she found out he was a cross dresser. There was no discussion as to any faults the husband may have had. There was no allegation of violating marital vows. There was no discussion the husband was deceitful or deceptive. No fooling around with either sex.

The husband was cast aside because he liked to wear women's clothing on occasion. Years later when my youthful experimentation as a early teen developed into cross dressing, my wife asked why I had not told her. I related the conversation she and her cousin had concerning the issue, and, how disgusted both felt about cross dressing. Given the disclosure my wife had made concerning her sexual history, I would have expected a different response from her. My wife told me she had wished she never told me of her youthful multiple indiscretions, so she could have played the same trump card. "I married a deviant or sexual pervert, and, it's time to get out."

Given the statistics of the number of husbands and wives who acknowledge having affairs ( and multiple affairs), the spouses are more willing to stay with a spouse who strays than a cross dresser. Nothing has really changed for most of society since the 1950's and 1960's. Most people, male or female, do not approve of men who feel the necessity to dress in women's clothing!

In today's society a person is better off being a gay or lesbian than a heterosexual cross dresser.
