I personally haven't had many in depth conversations with transexuals. Of course some will like genetic girls. And the road to SRS is long and difficult, so I can easily see how someone heading down that path couldn't dress full time in the initial steps.
I agree that most transexuals dress "down" while transvestites can dress pretty flashy. That's what makes me think that transvestites receive some sort of sexual boost from dressing while transexuals do not. The way I look at it, transexuals consider dressing in women's clothing as a "means to and end", while transvestites consider it the final goal.
I in no way consider your thoughts as "nitpicking". I welcome them and enjoy the discussion. When I was younger, I very much wish I had the ability to reach out to people like yourself to have discussions when I was trying to figure out who I was and how this part of my life could be balanced.
