  • stages of crossdressing

    Monday, August 17, 2009 | An Educational story

    I would like to take a moment and compare the stages of crossdressing, at least as I think they exist. Please note that I am not a doctor, but I have studied this, and have spend enough time being analyzed that I think my opinion counts. So here goes:
