The DSM V states clearly that males who get off sexually by pretending to be females can be diagnosed as having gender dysphoria and so be called ‘transwomen’. The following are direct quotes from my copy of the DSM V, if MN should look at the DSM V and the pages referenced they will clearly see this to be the case. Why should any woman, much less a lesbian (who has no sexual interest in heterosexual males whatsoever) be forced to pretend these males are some kind of woman? These are heterosexual males with a fetish and need to be named as such, not allowing us to name males as males is shielding these males from being named for what they are.
From the DSM V:
Gender Dysphoria (p456)
" Adolescents and adults with late-onset genÂder dysphoria frequently engage in transvestic behavior with sexual excitement . The
majority of these individuals are gynephilic or sexually attracted to other posttransition
natal males with late-onset gender dysphoria. A substantial percentage of adult maleswith late-onset gender dysphoria cohabit with or are married to natal females. After genÂder transition, many self-identify as lesbian ."
"Natal femaleswith the late-onset form do not have co-occurring transvestic behavior with sexual excitement."
P702-704 ‘Transvestic Disorder
Transvestic disorder occurs in heterosexual (or bisexual) adolescent and adult males (rarely in females) for whom cross-dressing behavior generates sexual excitement and causes distress and/or impairment without drawing their primary gender into question. It is occasionally accompanied by gender dysphoria. An individual with transvestic disorder who also has clinically significant gender dysphoria can be given both diagnoses. In many cases of late-onset gender dysphoria in gynephilic natal males, transvestic behavior with sexual excitement is a precursor .’
‘Associated Features Supporting Diagnosis Transvestic disorder in men is often accompanied by autogynephilia (i.e., a male’s paraphilic tendency to be sexually aroused by the thought or image of himself as a woman). Autogynephilic fantasies and behaviors may focus on the idea of exhibiting female physiological functions (e.g., lactation, menstruation), engaging in stereotypically feminine behavior (e.g., knitting), or possessing female anatomy (e.g., breasts).’
‘Specifiers
The presence of fetishism decreases the likelihood of gender dysphoria in men with transvestic disorder. The presence of autogynephilia increases the likelihood of gender dysphoria in men with transvestic disorder .’
