Crossdressing in an incredibly relaxing hobby. I have a stressful job, with often long overtime hours, and a lot of pressure for deadlines. Once back home, going into any feminine clothes is incredibly calming, soothing, relaxing, it helps getting rid of stress. I have high blood pressure issues, and dressing is actually as efficient as lowering my pressure than medication, that is sometimes impressive.
So I see crossdressing as a way to escape real-life, and have a different and more relaxing time. But as suggested in that thread, I would not consider a woman's life less stressful. In that case, we would be trying to get more the appearance of a woman rather than her complete lifestyle.
Not being full-time man or woman is a way to avoid some of the difficult times of both genders, and keep only the best
