Transvestic disorder applies to ________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Transvestic disorder is a diagnosis that applies to heterosexual males who experience arousal and/or satisfaction from cross-dressing. It is distinct from gender dysphoria, which involves a persistent sense of discomfort with one's assigned gender and a desire to live as the opposite gender. Female impersonators who work in nightclubs may or may not have transvestic disorder, as their motivations for cross-dressing may be related to entertainment or financial gain rather than personal arousal or satisfaction.
