Wow, I didn't expect to receive this many responses.
I am very attracted to women and even when I am dressed I only have eyes for women, so like someone else said, that probably makes me a repressed lesbian who won't ever go the whole way of transgender for various reasons.
Just to add a couple things; First, my wife and her younger sister both dress like men. Even when we go to fancy restaurants, they wear pants, sweaters and chunky men's work boots. I think this is partly what has relit my fire to crossdress, the fact my wife doesn't dress feminine at all, and I'm someone who feels I "need" femininity e.g. feminine clothing in my life.
Second, my wife knows that my grandfather used to crossdress and maybe still does, yet we're given the impression the church made him stop. She has never once thought of him as potentially gay.
Oh and third, I am going through a hell of a lot of stress at the moment with work and stuff, and my wife knows that dressing up calms me down. I have even bought some fairly neutral or androgynous clothes, but she immediately says "no, it looks like a women's. Wear it if you want but people will laugh", so I put it back in the closet. On vacation this summer I talked to her saying I need to be able to wear neutral clothes to be happy. She seemed to digest what I said, at the time, but now doesn't. She's not "anti" but not supportive, as any time I mention crossdressing, she brings the gay thing into it somehow.
