The raging conversation around terms never really stops as at one site people are talking about FemBoy (feminine boy) vs Crossdresser which is as some of you are aware an old term for a person usually a male who wears attire that was seen as just for females.
To me some of that talk is less about the act of wearing clothes associated with females of any age so much as subdivisions around to what extent that person may be out wearing any particular look and if it is seen as a more indoors, closet, bedroom fetish or fantasy thing.
And to be honest I feel that itself gets mixed up because some people may not be sexual while others are (and who we to know?) and other traits such as submissiveness can be shared.
The bigger thing to me is this: I'm a feminine gurl because I identify as a sex as a male however I dress wearing clothing seen as more feminine and have no issues with it, being happy to be referred to while dressed as that.
In the past crossdressers were seen as more people who had no permanent longing to be full time women but who had a feminine side, a separate personal name for that aspect of them and while some dressed in a more everyday female fashion others took exaggerated uber-femme form which may be more sexual.
You may prefer to called by that name by all in that role.
In the most extreme case you might think of say a drag act.
What complicates it is when you are an age regresser either voluntary as part coping mechanism or involuntary connected with more developmental or disability reasons in which instance you are very likely to dress less adult.
These may include school girl (boy), toddler, young girl into frilly dresses and much of those presentations are relatively flat chested.
Personally I'd sooner ditch the term cross dresser, keep any sex or gender based idenities where necessary and go more with the expression we are using adult or little.
I see myself as a adult little gurl who does wear girls uniform, dresses and skirts but accepting of my sex identity.
All of us if we felt that way could present in a more older teen adult way too perhaps taking in elements from submissive culture and as legal adults engage in sexual acts with other legal adults who were at one with this.
It's not the clothing that is gendered only the roles in which we may wear them and our response to that is of necessity personal.
Would a person seriously undertake gender re-assigment treatments and surgery just to let out that younger girl side?
Having spoken with some, my answer would be no as they've indicated little benefit having no interest in female adult side.
