My favorite fantasy…

Does it involve frills?  Satin?  Hormones?  A domanatrix?  Magic?  Aliens?On the surface, it seems to be an fairly harmless question.  But over the BBS section, it caught my eye.  An unregistered guest entered it early this month.  A pretty decent response.  22 people answered, ranging from going to a prom, to being a cheerleader, to being raised as a girl, to magically waking up and living happily ever after.

Someone started listing fantasies like having a job, and not being insulted in public.  And not having “cross-dressers, fetishists and gynaphylics” marginalizing my status as a woman. 

Insulting?  Nope.  Not in the least.  I fully understand how some people are fed up with some sections of the cross dressing community.  TS’s are annoyed because it’s all a game for us.  And if there’s the slightest bit of a problem, we throw everything in the closet, and maintain an air of normalcy.  Transsexuals don’t have that option. 

Genetic women don’t get many cross dressers either.  Why?  Because their view of what is feminine and what women are really like is skewed.  (That’s why you hear so many in the community say “My wife doesn’t understand me.”  Of course she doesn’t!  You’re not thinking or acting like a real woman.)

Let’s face it: crossdressers and transsexuals probably have less shared ground than they have in common.  Cross dressing is an escape, and transsexuality is a journey.  But, we had better give up the internal sniping, because it’s not helping any of us.
