Although there have been documentaries and talk shows that have explored the life of a transsexual, the condition is much maligned and misunderstood. Before we explore what a transsexual is, we will discuss what it is not.
A transsexual is not a homosexual in that homosexuality is a sexual preference of same sex attraction with the condition existing between the legs.
A transsexual is not a drag queen as the latter dresses to impersonate a woman in order to attract a man.
A transsexual is not a ->-bleeped-<- as the latter is a man cross dressing occasionally for a variety of reasons to include: 1) masquerading as a woman 2) relief from anxiety and pressure 3) a fetish expression and 4) a sexual release, Studies indicate these men wish to remain as men and many are heterosexual, married or formerly married with cross dressing accounting for or contributing to their divorce.
