How Many People Live with Internal Conflicts? [View all]

Take this Republican, for example:





"Okay a little nervous and here and maybe even terrified, but here goes. I hope this does not offend anyone in any way as it is not meant to. I am a 40 something year old guy who occasionally likes to cross dress. I do not want to be a woman or live as a woman. I just like sexy things and have been searching forever to find a woman who may be able to be a friend and help me out. I figured I would try being open and honest up front so as to not cause any confusion and upset anyone who may have been mislead at the start. It has not been working well at all, but I figured honesty was a good place to start.

So I am wondering if you may be interested in sharing some tips or advice on fashion, make-up, or whatever helps me look more like a woman when dressed and less like a man. I know this sounds off, but I am horrible at fashion and was also hoping to find someone to help me shop for age appropriate clothing."

So... is this person better off as a Republican? I know that the knee-jerkers will see the part about 'cross-dressing' and void themselves of their higher reasoning in favor of sanctimonious indignation utterly irrelevant to the point of this post. For some, intelligent discussion holds no advantage over artificial indignation.

But seriously... is this PERSON better off as a Republican?
