Transgender is a continuum, a matter of degree, rather than something you are or are not like you are alive or you are dead. I know that I am transgender. I have told my story on this forum more than once about first realizing that I was more than so called just a crossdresser. I, and others, have also been clear about why we have chosen not to transition. There is a category of trans referred to as: non transitioning transgender. Many crossdressers fit this category although many, perhaps most do not. But those of us who chose not to transition are not in denial. We know who we are and we have made a choice. Please respond that. Nancy
