I like to think of my experiences as a" sexual stimuli " and the attraction really isn't to the clothing but one might think it started out that way at first..It may have always been a mind stimulation because for me the real attraction was to " femininity" which may or may not be an object ( femininity is best known as a gender but can be related to the objects or qualities of being a female such as high heels ,make-up or clothing)..Maybe some of you have read this and I know it doesn't fit the majority of the trans people here on this site but I find it helpful..http://www.minddisorders.com/Del-Fi/Fetishism.html
