Identity versus sexual preference

I am still trying to comprehend infantile or greatly exaggerated versions of gender variance. Here I am speaking of those people who dress like children or very sexualized facsimiles of the same type of women that they might themselves be drawn to. Clearly, I do not subscribe to AGP  but not because arousal does not exist, rather because it tries to suggest that transitions are due to sexual deviance and not identity. This does not mean however that there aren't people with what are ostensibly fetishes.

Fetishes have always existed and form part of the sexuality of many people. They most certainly also exist outside the world of gender variance so this is no great surprise. We know that they are a statistically predictable percentage of human sexuality.

My key point here is how one sometimes needs to work hard to recognize within themselves the difference between a sexual preference versus an essential issue of identity; part of that deep dive with the understanding that there is no wrong answer. Only our own.
