The Transvestite Opening

So I decided to give the Transvestite Opening I heard about a good try. I did win, but I think it is more of a shock value move than anything. What do you think black does wrong in this game that gives me the edge?

Gosh, I am sure that is me losing with black, using the ID charleshiggie on Gameknot. Yes, the shock value was great and I just assumed that my opponent must be very weak to play an opening like that!

I saw Simon Williams winning a game vs a IM with this crap, believe it or not, but it was not thanks to the opening, of course.

10.....Be6 is obviously my first mistake - simply retreating the other bishop to e7 prevents the loss of the piece. But it was quickplay!

This is a truly fascinating opening, with some exceptions it looks pretty cool.
