What do people generally think of transvestites?

I am fine with transvestites. I watched a program that said native americans refer to them as 'twin spirited' meaning that they had both male and female spirits. This description has always stuck with me. I have not had any transvestite friends, but I have encountered them in society. I had a manicure from one and she was the best! One of the transvestites I knew worked at the gym I belonged to. I thought she was attractive. I think if the person remains well groomed, it is okay.
