DianneT, crossdressing is only weird as you say because we assume it to be weird in our current society. There are other cultures and countries that accept cross dressing, transgenderism, and third gender people openly. Fortunately kids today in the United States are exposed to gender expression and trans people much more often so it is not as weird to them.
My point is that we first have to accept ourselves as not weird if we want others to see us as not weird too.
