From the Paper:

"Transvestism is considered a psychosexual disorder in which erotic pleasure is derived from wearing clothing designed for members of the opposite sex.
The distinguishing characteristic of transvestism is
wearing feminine clothing . . . is associated with sexual arousal at least in the initial phase of the condition (Rekers, 1984, p. 1180). Transvestites report intense frustration when cross dressing is interfered with and many report a tension release or anxiety reduction during episodes of cross-dressing.
Rekers (1984, p. 1180) indicates that about 89% of trans-vestites are heterosexual and about 64% are married and appear masculine in their everyday life. About two-thirds have children."
