Being a woman: A Blurry Line?

Years ago, I hung out with a large group of crossdressers and went to drag shows and such. I was a transgresser, a gender non-comformist. I wore makeup and feminine clothing, yet often didn't try to pass as female. (It's all documented in my "blast from the past" entries, and I had coined my own term, "duplex mode" to refer to that mode of presentation.) I had a lot of fun and I really didn't care what people thought. Now that I've realized I'm a transsexual (running strong for six years), I care. Sometimes I care too much what people think.
I hate to say it, but I don't consider drag queens or crossdressers to be women.
