Now all of us have a reason to crossdress. Going out in maled mode is far to dangerous. I will tell my wife and hopefully all the closeting will be over.
I am more of a CROSSDREAMER than anything else.
Let's step back from this and discuss the fundamentals of research. I am a research scientist. I know the difference between correlation vs. experimenatation designed to prove or disprove a given theory or thesis.
What you have here is the worst of correlation and sensationalism. Let me give an example: In the 60's it was noticed that people who drive with their lights on had fewer accidents. When some idiot then decided that everyone should drive with their lights on, it was quickly realized that the reason for lower accident rates of those who drove with their lights on unbid was because they were better drivers to begin with. That group ALEADY had a lower accident rate!
This situation of increasingly identifiable TV/TGs has not been investigated at all based upon epidemiological concepts, but that doesn't mean that anyone who has an axe to grind won't try to use it for their ends.
I would enjoy reading about a solid statistical study of the increasing number of TV/TGs (if it's true) and the reasons for it. Maybe the first study should be to determine if there really are more of us, or if the increase in communication has made it possible for us to finally know each other, and to have those who were not aware of their transgendered nature to find sites like this and have an epiphany.
Until there are careful statistical studies, these people who try to use correlation of unrelated assumptions should be completely ignored. Their need for supporting their egos is the real reason they propose any of this balogna!

Tina, I appreciate what you're saying, but I don't think there are many of us who prefer to draw conclusions from statistical studies than personal opinion and hearsay. Also, I think lots of people come here, not for answers so much as fun and entertainment, and amicable banter, not unlike the discourse at any neighborhood pub.![]()

I agree with this. My guess is that it has to do with people finding other like-minded individuals over the internet and coming to the conclusion, "hey, I'm not alone after all," and with that support system are able to come out about who they truly are. Also, it seems like people are in general more accepting of alternative lifestyles these days to a certain extent. Still, this is just my opinion and not based on evidence or research... but I think it's way more simple and sensible than the winning/losing side hypothesis!
Well posted Tina.

Giggles, wonder if there will be a decrease in male species throughout all living things. No more male Lions with great manes, no more food for female spiders, no more male monkeys exposing themselves yikes. Maybe in a few thousand years we will see females evolving as males and some not. That means another era of male/female creatures.
Maybe toilets could be redesigned and bras used as slingshots. Wow, imagining what could be as I go for my nightly stroll to the toilet. Maybe Lionesses will see the light and avoid killing for a dominant male lion . Maybe the male will be an alpha female?
Maybe we have seen the light and join a female army as subservient ambassadors for the feminists. Wow, maybe we are secretly wanting to be feminists? Drifting off to sleep with luck I will wake with a female body, I may have better chance of that than secretly wanting to be on a winning side.
