Other tests than the one described were also done and the author comments on these results thus: "Of the trends that emerged, the following appeared to be the most significant:

1. When such items as education, occupational level and marital status are examined, the transvestites as a group, seemed to have made a surprizingly good social adjustment.'

2. Findings in regard to, "certain aspects of emo- tional health did not reveal gross disturbances in the transvestite group when compared to controls.

3. The psychological feelings and interests of trans- vestites were greatly different than the normal males but similar to the normal females.

When compared to the contro groups, the trans- vestites did not identify as intensely with either parent, and tended to see themselves as different from people in general" (as if we didn't know that all along.)

The responses of the transvestites did not indicate that overt selection of a homosexual partner played a major role in the reversal of sexual identity.

COMMENTARY BY THE EDITOR: First off, this investigator in common with the great majority of psychiatrists and psychologists has not yet discovered that sex and gender are not two words for the same thing--that they do not have a 1 to 1 correlation. Thus he is tied in his own knot of using a semantic test to discover certain psychological facts and then turning around and making the gross semantic error of referring to the transvestite group as "individuals with disturbed sexual identity", and to refer to, "Their overt sexual identity reversal". Yet his own results show that a smaller percentage of his TV group had had homosexual experiences than Kinsey found in the total population. The point is that we are males, and the vast majority of us are sexually interested in females. There is therefore no disturbed sexual identity nor sexual reversal. There is a desire for feminine gender expression as manifested by the clothes and appurtanences of the 20th century female but that is all in most cases.
