Re: Cross Dressers

I was a cross dresser a couple years in a row!!














Don't know why they always picked me for that part in the church Easter play.

Cross dressers? Should we not dress the way the CROSS dictates we do, without self exaltation and immodesty?

I agree. I thought I'd give him one last chance to do the honorable thing, but apparently it's not in his nature.
