Cross Dressing
Quote From: keysonAn age old question: Is this something that I do or something that I am? I feel that I have some special insight. I recall being dressed as a girl when I was either kindergarten or before. I am now a 53 year old male and have always had an attraction towards cross-dressing. I have struggled with this question over the years. In one sense, I have always felt the need to express the "woman inside". At the end of the day, however, I usually conclude that this is something I "do". I believe, though, that the feelings towards this are very similar to homosexuality. There is the need to do this and the everpresent question of whether it is behavior or identity. I believe strongly that it is "not of God", and that I have been guitly, over the years, of compartmentalizing my life, that is, this for God and this for my ego.
I tend to think it is the same for gays. It is kinda like the children raised with parents that smoke - they want to be grown up like their parents and smoke too. Same with drinking. Once we realize that something is not right or can hurt us, it is a choice that we have to stop or get help in stopping. I personally believe calling out to God for help is the best. Alot of counselors today are in it for the money and create a bigger problem for the MONEY.
