I agree with every thought you wrote, Stevie. This idea that there can be a gene for crossdressing just seems like wishful thinking. Fact is, when viewing this from the outside, crossdressing looks awfully similiar to some other behaviors that are sometimes mentioned here, so I highly doubt there's a 'crossdressing gene' but rather an inclination for some human males to create a seperate 'identity' for themselves. One that frees them, even temporarily, from the confines of being male. But no one wants to connect other lifestyles with crossdressing because that would be weird.![]()
Fact is, no one knows the answer and until they find that elusive gene, it's all just theory. Though, finding it might bring more issues, as you mentioned. Your wife's translocation can be tested out through IVF these days, by genetically screening the embryos. Are we naive enough to believe that a crossdressing gene wouldn't lead to the same?
