The disorder described in the scenario is transvestic disorder. This disorder involves recurrent and powerful sexual arousal from cross-dressing, with fantasies of being the opposite sex. It is important to note that this disorder is different from transsexualism, which involves a strong and persistent identification with the opposite gender and a desire to live as that gender. Frotteuristic disorder involves recurrent and intense sexual arousal from touching or rubbing against a non-consenting person, and fetishistic disorder involves recurrent and intense sexual arousal from a specific object or body part.
