Cross-Dressing

is the act of wearing clothing commonly associated with the other gender within a particular society. The usage of the term, the types of cross-dressing both in modern times and throughout history.

cross-dressing denotes an action or a behavior without attributing or proposing causes for that behavior. Some people automatically connect cross-dressing behavior to transgender identity or sexual, fetishist, and homosexual behavior, but the term cross-dressing itself does not imply any motives.

The term cross-dresser should therefore be used with care to avoid causing misunderstanding or offense.

(i.e. Drag Queen or Drag King is are a form of cross-dressing for only entertainment purposes)
