I hate it when CDs compare themselfs to TGs

Really i know this sounds bad.. If your a Crossdresser your not a TG. if you want to be one so bad see your DR and start hormones. its super easy. you just have to ask. i started HRT at 41 (im 44 now) and all i did to get started was ask my DR. so please stop trying to tell people your a TG when your just a CD..

Do transwomen generally dislike or look down on CDs? I sometimes get that impression.

@CrazyMusicLover Not all of them, But i have seen many post or conversations like this one. These Trans girls that do are what I would call the Lucky ones, They figured out what they wanted and were able to follow through with it without any real problems and see it as a clear and easy line . Many are not so lucky, they live in denial in hopes it will pass in time, have family expectations they must try and live up to, or live in an area that doesn't have support for trans people. These Gurls will use crossdressing as an outlet to try curb there feelings, if even only for a short term of relief. These gurls have some of the roughest roads & as you can see are sometimes looked down upon. Having said that there are some who only want to crossdress, they should typically know they are Just crossdressers ( as seen in a below response) It is not a clear & cut line. you must hear there story before you pass judgement.

@Aprilgurl Maybe I should have say transvestites rather than CDs. Like if someone has paraphilia. You know, I find it kind of bizarre that someone from a marginalized community that knows very well how it feels to be hated on feels the need to hate on people from some other marginalized community. Like the sentiment is "oh, it's about identity for us while they are just perverts." I've learned recently that here where I live even sexologists classify all paraphilias as deviations and paraphiliacs as deviants which in my personal opinion is extremely insulting because they basically paint actual sex offenders and harmless fetishes with the same brush. So I kind of feel like this sentiment is adopted by transgender people as well and that's where the hate is coming from.

@CrazyMusicLover transvestites, I see as somewhere between crossdresser and transexual. Again, may be happy in that form or could be on there way to transexual. each has a story and its own feelings.
iI totally agree with your statement, you cannot compartmentalize groups by what they do or phase they are going through.
