Fetishes of this nature are usually imprinted when an individual associates sexual arrousal with a specific object at a young age.
For example, when a young straight boy gets his first boner, but the association is with the woman's clothing rather than her physique.
As with other fetishes, this becomes a habitual sex fantasy and often results in the individual using women's clothing as a masturbatory aid (usually by wearing them).
Most homosexuals who crossdress are female impersonators or "queens," and do it for completely different reasons.
Transgendered individuals actually identify as the opposite gender, usually as a result of developmental abnormalities in the chromosones.
