	Transvestic fetishism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
		Also, not every sexual behaviour where clothes of the other gender are involved are transvestic fetishism, they are also often used in sexual roleplay without being a fetish.
		Most transvestic fetishists are said to be heterosexual men, although there are no studies that accurately represent either their sexual orientation or gender, and most information on this is based on anecdotal evidence or informal surveys.
		Thus, transvestic fetishism is not considered a mental illness unless it causes significant problems for the person concerned.

	Sexual fetishism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sexual fetishism, first described as such by Alfred Binet in his Le fétichisme dans l’amour, though the concept and certainly the activity is quite ancient, is a form of paraphilia where the object of affection is a specific inanimate object or part of a person's body.
		Transvestic fetishism, the fetish of dressing in the clothes of the opposite sex, is also common.
		Similarly, 'fetish' is often used as a synonym for BDSM, whether or not it involves a fetish in the technical sense.

	DSM-IIIR Gender Identity Disorder and Transvestic Fetishism
		This disorder differs from Transvestic Fetishism in that the cross-dressing is not for the purpose of sexual excitement; it differs from Transsexualism in that there is no persistent preoccupation (for at least two years) with getting rid of one's primary and secondary sex characteristics and acquiring the sex characteristics of the other sex.

		Fetishism is not diagnosed when sexual arousal by nonhuman objects is limited to articles of female clothing used in cross- dressing.

		The fetishes are not limited to articles of female clothing used in cross-dressing (transvestic fetishism) or devices designed for genital stimulation (eg, vibrators).
		For men, the fetish serves a defensive function, a reinforcing adjunct for a penis of uncertain potency.

		In contrast, the issue is left open to interpretation for transvestic fetishism and gender identity disorder amid controversy (Zucker and Blanchard, 1995).
		For example, the DSM-IV paradoxically acknowledges non-erotic motivations for crossdressing in transvestic fetishism: "In such instances, the cross-dressing becomes an antidote to anxiety or depression and contributes to a sense of peace and calm" (APA, 1994).
		The diagnostic categories of Gender Identity Disorder and Transvestic Fetishism, like Homosexuality in past decades, may or may not meet current definitions of psychiatric disorder depending on subjective assumptions regarding "normal" sex and gender role and the distress of societal prejudice.
