angelikaJ -> RE: Misrepresentation By Crossdressers Concerning Their Gender And Sexuality (9/24/2009 3:35:55 PM)

I appreciate both your frustration and your effort to sort it out.
There is a difference between crossdressing as a fetish and being a transgendered individual.
You do differentiate that at the end of your post but at the top and middle you lump them together.
You also (as of yet) have not addressed the issue of the intersexed.
I also have a query re: your claim that the accurate terms are: "mono-sexual with"... .
I have not seen that as an offered option for sexual orientation...not just here, but anywhere.
This is not meant as an attack of your ideas or your position that you clearly feel so strongly about, but do you think it fair to ask people to identify as you wish them to?
I am not convinced that the basis of sexual identity can/should be soley determined by the classification of genetically female/genetically male.
If someone has always felt they are different gender from what they were born as, I do not necessarily think that their brain has it wrong.
I see no trickery in that, no deception, provided you are given all of the relevant information.
In the example you give, they do:
"The person in question is a long-time cross-dresser for many, many years, who now, at the age of 50, states in their profile, "I am a m2f transsexual WOMAN". They show their sex on their profile as "female", and their sexual orientation as "lesbian". This person continues on in their profile to state, "I am, and have always been, attracted to WOMEN"."
