6 Million Brit Blokes Want To Be Women
Men who dress up in drag at fancy dress parties are exactly the same as
transvestites, the Sunday Times reported this week.
"Fancy dress is all about acting out your alter ego," style consultant/
psychologist Ros Taylor told the paper.
"I'm amazed by the number of men who like going to parties dressed as
women. They can be a transvestite in public and the next day wash the
slate clean. It's a risk-free way of being someone you secretly want to
be," she explained.
Her views matched those of cross-dressing organisation The Gender
Information Service (GIS) whose website on transvestism suggests up to six
million British men fit into the category.
"Male Cross Dressing or Transvestism is much more widespread than is
generally thought. Estimates of the proportion of the male population
that practice some form of cross-dressing vary between ten and twenty
percent," say GIS.
"These estimates cover a wide range of levels of indulgence, from those
who occasionally put on female underwear or nightwear to those who go
out in public dressed as women."
In more fancy dress news, Welsh police chief Roly Schwarz this week
urged binge drinkers to embrace dressing up, to help reduce violence both
in the street and amongst binge drinkers getting drunk at home.
"People are less likely to get involved in trouble if they're in a
fancy dress costume," the Rhyl police chief suggested (Metro).
In even more gender-bending news, a new survey of men's sexual
practises published by ITV this week, revealed that 42% of young men admit to
taking orgasm, in common with 58% of women who owned up to doing the
same thing.
"Maybe we tend to see orgasm as the signal to stop sex," psychosexual
therapist Paula Hall suggested when asked why so many people are faking
it. "If, for some reason, you mind or body doesn't fancy an orgasm, you
could be at it forever." (BBC relationships website)
How Do You Know When You've Found Your True Love?
Barefoot Doctor: "When it happens, it happens and it's something
stronger than the mind can deal with. Suddenly you're willing to change
absolutely everything in your life to accommodate this person and all you
can do is look at them and marvel at the miracle of their presence in
your life.
However, holding out for such a lover is like holding out until you win
the lottery as the odds of meeting this person at a time when you're
both free and willing are similarly as slim. So don't hold out or hold
back and try to have the best time you can all the time. Enjoying
yourself isn't going to stop the power of destiny."
