Focusing on the social processes of cross-dressing and sex-changing, this book presents a comprehensive theory of 'male femaling' through a detailed examination of its phases, from 'beginning femaling' to 'consolidating femaling'. Grounded in seventeen years of extensive fieldwork and qualitative analysis, it challenges traditional clinical models by emphasizing the variability and emergent nature of these phenomena. The insights drawn from interactions with thousands of individuals in these communities significantly impact the understanding of transvestism, transsexualism, and broader gender studies.
