I just watched the respected author/historian, Mark Felton’s recent YT upload titled “Was Hermann Göring Gay?”

Mark concludes that Göring exhibits homeovestism as something of an open question. It is the first time I have encountered the idea and terminology. I have no skin in the game, and am only genuinely curious how this lenses in the community.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/homeovestism
Never heard the term before. Based just on the wikitionary definition, seems like a weird way to say “people like feeling hot and desirable” but while seeming like they are trying to pathologize it. Also, the one quote they give of the word being used doesn’t really seem to fit the definition given?
Perhaps its they’re just trying to make a neutral word to refer to something they observe. Like “heterosexual” wasn’t invented to pathologize heterosexuality.
