    obviously no i wouldnt question nonbinary folks in the same way, nor gender fluid folks nor agender folks nor any other gender identity. are you saying being a sissy or crossdresser is a gender identity in itself? that really isnt how its been presented by them since they often identify as men. its presented as only a fetish, which isnt the same as gender identity at all, any more than being a sub, dom, or cuck is. it evokes the fetishization of trans women and plays into it, which makes me kind of uncomfortable because i dont really want to be fetishized.

    i can feel this turning into a shit throwing semantic argument where we talk past each other and get nowhere. at the end of the day i dont understand sissies and crossdressers, so unless you want to explain their feelings to me i would prefer not to be attacked.

      Sissy in particular likely stems from the social taboo of not performing to your gender’s role, it’s just a form of humiliation kink. Might be more common in closeted/egg transfems because it’s a somewhat safer way of being feminine in a context, it just happens to be sexual.

      And crossdressing is a super wide term anyway but in a sexual context I’d think it’s just roleplay
