There isn’t an order to it. It’s not some progressive timeline of you start crossdressing, then you start doing drag, then you transistion.
I’m sure some people have followed that path, but crossdressing and drag should not be seen as strictly done by transgender people.
Crossdressing is not the same as being transgender.
There’s plenty of drag queens who are cis men and not trans women.
The term transgender is used to describe a person whose gender identity is different from the one that they were born into or what is noted on their birth certificate. Transgender people do not believe that the sex they were assigned at birth and their gender identifies are the same.
For the most part, cross-dressers are usually heterosexual people who wear clothing traditional of the opposite sex.
The most common example of a crossdresser is a man who wears traditionally feminine clothing such as dresses or skirts. Depending on the person and situation, a cross-dresser may or not identify or associate themselves with the LGBTQ community.
I wouldn’t call straight men consuming trans porn a bizarre phenomenon.
My personal life isn’t performative.
Crossdressing is not the same as being transgender. There can be overlap, but there’s plenty of men who like to crossdress.

Now if you wanted to find a study on the average time sex lasts, that could be worthy of discussion.
Decision paralysis is definitely a symptom of ADHD. Part of the whole executive dysfunction thing.
Not saying you have ADHD, but it might be worthwhile to poke around common symptoms and do some introspection as well.
As @phailhaus@piefed.social mentioned, it might be good to provide an event for such an outfit to be worn to since it’s been decades since she’s dressed up like this.
No, it would not be untoward to have her fitted as long as that’s something she would enjoy.
Exactly where my next suggestion was going to go! Good advice
I mostly see this kind of fitting done for wedding dresses and similar. Usually high end. Does your mother wear expensive fashion?
They don’t cut them too short. The rest of the umbilical cord, the stump part, naturally falls off of a newborn after some time. Bellybutton is a naturally formed type of scar.
He wouldn’t be able to shame this woman if he actually listened.
Straight men are attracted to women, yes.
