I think it’s great that you were upfront with the AirBnB host.
My friend is an AirBnB host and had a rather unsettling experience with who she eventually thought was a cross dresser (this was her very first customer). He arrived for a 4 day conference with a huge amount of luggage. The first couple days, he would leave early and return very late. At one point, after I had visited my friend’s home, she emailed a picture of an earring asking if it belonged to me - it was not mine. Thinking maybe he invited a friend for the night, she left the earring on the counter with a nice note indicating she found the item, did it belong to someone he knew? If it wasn’t a familiar item, all he needed to do was say he had never seen it before and leave it at that.
However, apparently he freaked out! Packed his car and split during the day when she was not home on what would have been “day 3” of his 4 night stay. The weirdest thing was that he took the bed apart and leaned it up against the wall. He also left a bad review on her AirBnB site.
In reality, IF he was a cross dresser, as she suspected, she would have been the most accepting and welcoming host he could have found! She is extremely open minded and he would probably have made a friend for life.
Now, since she is familiar with cross dressers, she may projecting her take on the situation. It just sounded to her like he panicked at the thought of being outed somehow and acted irrationally.
