Actually, I don't think this is true. I think women have desired feminine men since time began - think rock stars, artists, global leaders and even Justin Bieber! There's something endearing, secure, sexy and even masculine about a man in touch with his softer side.
But most women, and I'd bet most people for that matter, wouldn't equate crossdressing as feminine. Weird, fetishistic and superficial might come to mind, but I'd bet my left leg that most women don't see a crossdresser the same way they see an emo rock star. Having a feminine side and presenting effeminately are really not the same thing, and for those not in the know (most people on planet earth!) this really is as far as they will think it.
But it is what it is, and you just have to accept that women of today are not nearly as open to this as the women of the educated future might be. So I would think the best options, Emeraude, are for you to take your time finding that rare gem who will appreciate this part of you, acknowledging the possibility you end up alone, or find a way to temper the dressing to a less important role in your life and engage all the other women who are not so interested but could tolerate limited exposure.
I've actually always thought at this point in history that the best partner for a MTF crossdresser is another MTF crossdresser, but sadly we can't choose who we're attracted to. I hope you find what you're looking for.
