It requires more than just a pair of pants because pants are normal female attire in our culture (and quite a few others).

If a dress or skirt is considered the opposite of a mans attire, what is the opposite of women's attire?

Which of these are cross dressing? (e.g., trying to pass themselves off as a man)
Oh, and while we're at it...which of THESE two is crossdressing:
Personally, I try my best to wear feminine clothes and encourage my daughters to do the same. My oldest daughter is really into western wear, so my rule of thumb for her is that she can't wear more than one western styled piece of clothing at a time. (Having to pair cowboy boots with a feminine skirt, for instance, reduces the *masculine* appearance.) That said, it takes a LOT more than a pair of pants to push someone into "crossdressing" territory. Hair, mannerisms, walk and talk all matter. We've all seen women who look "butch", and they are NOT your run-of-the-mill women who've thrown on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt to go grab groceries.
Likewise for a man, it takes a lot more than a pink polo shirt to make him look feminine. Unless he's already effeminate in nature and/or he throws a lot of other details in with it, the pink polo means nothing.
This guy isn't particularly feminine either, for that matter:
(And he's wearing a skirt AND ruffles.
