I am also a GG who thinks the word 'feminine' is way over-used here. I don't know if this is because men have such limited emotional freedom so anything non-boorish is assumed to be female, which is clearly silly as we women can feel as boorish as the next guy and it doesn't make us male. What I do think is many here are just trying to experience the full spectrum of human emotions and for whatever reason, social restriction or brain wiring or whatever, these same emotions can only be felt if they're compartmentalised into gender. A man needn't feel bad about crying over a movie if his separate femme side did the crying for him. He couldn't possibly dance or giggle in a suit, but throw on a skirt and wig and suddenly he's free to twirl around the living room. It's almost like some psychological masculine preservation tactic. Now there's a mouthful, lol.
In fact, I often wonder if men were able to just feel and behave however they liked, whether there'd be much need for crossdressing? Feminism gave women the freedom to be who we want to be...what's the equivalent movement for men??
I guess I should ask the crossdressers this question, lol.
