It's the "word game" again. I hate it. I hate the use of one word to try to explain very complicated issues. Society seems to have a grasp on the sexual orientation ascribed to men who are attracted or men and women who are attracted to women, and, those who swing either way. Forgetting the non-acceptance issues of those lifestyles and transsexual men and women, pre-op or post-op, I think there is mass confusion concerning cross dressing men. Personally, I do not like being thrown into the trans spectrum because it clouds the issue in the minds of the general public. It is easier to explain, whether it is accepted or not, that someone may be "born into the wrong body." I do not understand why I choose/need to wear women's clothing let alone try to explain it to others. I can state I like the colorful clothes. I can state there is an element of stress relief. But, why the need to wear a bra with forms? Or hip or butt pads?
Mrs. Doubtfire. Bosom Buddies or Tootsie are comedies. Frankly, I cannot even recall any news programs of heterosexual men living with a heterosexual partner. It's always a man becoming a transwoman with all the struggles a relationship goes through. Has anyone seen anything remotely about a MtF cross dresser..just plain vanilla hubby? I haven't.
