These discussions are simply people's opinions.

And Krisi - while you love to give out your opinions, you hate it when people give their opinions about your thoughts.

Maybe thats what can't be picked or chosen?
No, I hate it when the "opinion" is phrased as a personal insult (like your post is). I understand that people have different opinions but if you find yourself having to insult someone else to defend your opinion, your opinion is pretty weak.

Posting why you think I am wrong is fine. Insulting me to try and defend your opinion is not.

Some people in this thread believe that Krisi accuses crossdressers of being criminals. Others, including me, believe that Krisi’s main point in her response to Helen (albeit with a bad example), centered on whether any behavior is naturally occurring or whether it is psychologically driven. Since there are two ways to take Krisi’s words, the best solution is to ask Krisi to clarify and confirm whether or not she does equate the crossdressing to criminal behavior.

And to be fair, Krisi should clarify this publicly since she has been publicly accused of saying something horribly negative against the crossdressing, which could harm her reputation here and cost her friends. If she says again that she does not believe that crossdressers are criminals, then she needs to be believed. To do otherwise would be accusing her of lying..
OK, I will say it. I never said or meant to imply that crossdressing was equal to criminal behavior. That was someone (look it up) intentionally twisting my words around to start an argument. Someone who by their position here, should have known better.

My intention was to suggest that if the desire to crossdress is created before birth by whatever conditions, then it is entirely possible that other behaviors are also, and that would include compulsive antisocial or criminal behavior. Nothing more, nothing less. No comparison other than they seem to be compulsive behaviors.
