…showed last 75 words of 848 total…people may think that a transsexual would be a cross dresser because they dress like the opposite sex. This is not true because when the transvestite cross-dresses, he or she dresses for physical pleasure and always retains or reverts back to and maintains his male or female gender-identity.
