My guess is that they are still questioning themselves. I know for me, there was a tipping point where I wasn't crossdressing and instead was just "putting on my clothes."

Yes I agree. My point was that you are not crossing over into anything. You are yourself and it is your identity and your clothing. Of course there are people for whom this is indeed a hobby and sometimes I like to pose questions in a way that has people reflect.

Well, I've never been a cross dresser - I've always been quite happy with myself, really.
