Because the drag queens who used to do this aren't what the media want to focus on because these are normal people. I don't know if they are still doing these types of charity drives since it's been a few years since I actually paid attention to the community in any real depth beyond trying to minimize the backdraft.
Yeah, it is a "normal" deviation. Common and by itself not a genetic end point (many transvestites, historically, have been otherwise straight men).
Its not my cup of tea, but it's pretty normal and wouldn't be an issue if we kept our weird sexual quirks to ourselves.
"Normal and not a genetic endpoint" is a pretty poor standard.
With that as the standard, we discard almost all cancer research. After all, it's endemically common, normal, and not a genetic endpoint. We give up on Alzheimers, too.
I think humanity can hold itself to a higher standard than "normal and not a genetic endpoint".
It's a fair point here, but:
"normal" in a psychological sense is very different from "normal" in a medical sense.
It's a maladaptive behavior, sure, but it's been documented in various ways for centuries. I'd assume as far back as recorded history goes, in fact. Very different from the current "I can actually change my gender" mindset.
I know it's an unpopular opinion, but there's a very important demarcation line between "men who get off in some way on dressing like women" and "men who believe by wearing a wig and makeup they can become women."
