I wonder how you put it away ? I mean without negating yourself. I believe that if it was so simple, than all TG people would just push the button to shut it off and be "normal"
we didn't decide to be like that, we were also born this way, it's not something we learn, in this way it is the very same thing as it is in gay community, it is just harder to explain to
"normal" people. It is indeed very easy to show crossdressing in a negative and amoral light - but this is actually the case, how our society perceives sexuality and how our society
perceives things that are out of the box. In the name of "peace" and "uniformity" everyone is trading their individuality for the sake of society. In this way many people have strong issues
and are worried that they are not "normal" I think the main overall problem is that in trying to fit we have to sell part of ourselves, and you don't even need to be crossdresser for this. It
could be anything really. We like to think that we live in a free society but that is not correct, people still have to fight for certain freedoms - educate others, find their spot under the sun
