Stranger in a strange land
To tell you the truth, I don't understand why you've bothered posting this at all. If you told your wife about your personal issues and she DIDN'T understand, then I could see why you would post this on a forum, Christian or otherwise.
But what's the problem? You have these feelings and issues, you haven't been able to suppress or overcome them, you told your wife and she was nothing but loving and understanding. Quite frankly, the only people who need to be involved are you and your wife. Your wife is okay with you, so no problem.
So what is the issue? Why the postings?
Why -shouldn't- he post? I mean, here's a very public thread on a very public forum discussing something that is a significant issue in his life, with a number of people condemning it out of hand. I would certainly speak up under such circumstances and I imagine you would too.
As to the subject at hand, I think it's an unfair double standard that women can totally wear men's clothes without anybody blinking but men don't enjoy the same luxury. And I don't just mean pants--a girl can wear her boyfriend's boxers or underwear to bed, or throw on a tux and fedora for a special occasion, and no one would mind... in fact, for a lot of guys it would be a turn on.
On the other hand, the battle against public opinion for the freedom to wear whatever we want was a long and successful battle in feminism. Perhaps men need to take a similar step towards normalizing the idea of wearing traditionally women's clothing?
Although I enjoy a lot of masculine activities, I always wear skirts--they are just so comfy and they feel nice against my legs. Why shouldn't a guy be able to do the same?
