Do you think there should be a distinction between transgender and transsexual people?
I hear a lot of times, some transgender people say they are " trans" and some transsexual people say they are " trans" too. I get that " trans" is just shorter and sometimes one of those things you just say, but shouldn't there be a distinction?I mean, since the term transgender is an umbrella term to encompass all kinds of people that don't follow traditional gender norms and or expression, isn't a bit 1 pompous of the transgender people to call themselves " trans" , when most assume " trans" means transsexual or getting have gotten a " sex change" ? and 2 A downgrade for those who truly ARE transsexual to be compared to say...a person who crossdresses in the privacy of their bedroom and wants to call himself herself " trans" ? Shouldn't transgender people say they are transgender and not transsexual? A lot of people mistake these two things as being the same thing, and they are not.For example..I have a friend that considers herself " genderqueer" . She considers herself female in situations where an unconventional gender expression would be awkward, and considers himself a male in situations where he feels comfortable to do so. She he also calls herself himself " trans" . It frustrates me, because as a transsexual person, I am trans too, but my transsexuality doesn't go away. It doesn't switch on and off like a light switch to fit my comfort level. I can't change it or take it off. It's me 24 7. I just feel like those who playfully throw around the word " trans" in this way..it's like a slap in the face.
Anyone else repulsed by the sexual amalgam known as the transgender? Should tolerance have its limits?
Everard Transgender isn't a sexual orientation. It's a extreme form of repressed homosexuality which drives people to self mutilation. These people don't need to be humored, they need to be helped.
Am I transgender? What to do now?
From very childhood days, I like more of feminine stuff than rough and tough games of boys. I like feminine aesthetics and glam and don't like to be in world of sports and athletics too much as it looks dark to me. As a boy, I often used to hang around with girls and I enjoyed female company more as we got to talk about many things that keep me lively music, fashion, and cinema, in contrary to sports and SUVs guys discuss about. I watch a lot of chick flicks, romantic movies, emotional serials, all of these have females as lead roles. But, it's not that I watch them only for appealing to my emotions, I also get an aesthetic pleasure from watching things which have females as lead roles. And the thing is, I really want to belong to the female aesthetic world despite having a male body.But it's not that this leads me to desire cross dressing type stuff or putting on things like jewelry or change my body to female... though I love to put on perfumes and some beauty creams which can make me look very stylish,young and juvenile. I want to attract both guys and girls and make my appearance very special modern and nubile, and this increases my tendency to be feminine as I don't see how one can look glam without being femme .Another manly thing I don't like is to be sexually virulent I feel I don't like to go and make the first sexual advance as much as I want others to do that to me.I do wish I were born girl so that I wouldn't have to worry about my all this feminity then.... but, otherwise, if I am not thinking too much about it and am not ashamed of it or trying to repress my feminine side too much, I am okay as male too. But when I try to repress my feminine side hard to conform to male, my wish that I were born female comes and I find I am not happy as man because a man has to do so many " manly" things like sports and watching Terminator, which I dont enjoy or find dull if not outright repulsive, and also because I feel I like too appear beautiful and femme, something which others might hate even if I enjoy.I find most men not concerned about themselves as much as wanting to earn for their wives to spend. But, in my case, I find something not working this way.....Now, do these traits of mine make me transgender? What best can I do to address this problem?
What is a transgender person?
I have a friend who is a girl, and she recently told me that she thinks she is transgendered. I read and article about a person who was, but i don't really understand it. she says that she really wishes that she was born a boy, she is more in to boy stuff. she wears mostly men clothes but not all the time. She is not gay in any way. she said that she is just asexual.she is not a transvestite. so are there other girls like this? how can you tell if someone is transgendered. are transgendered people looked down upon like a lot of gays and lesbians? I never heard of such a thing until this week.

Could i really be transgender?
Lately, or in the past 2 weeks i have realized that i want to be a man. I have never felt this way before and have always loved being a woman and my body. I actually wanted bigger boobs when i was younger and couldn't wait to menstruate. Could me wanting to be a man be a phase? Has any woman wanted to be a man and then changed her mind? I know this sounds mean but i don't want to be transgender i just want to be happy with my body like i was before.
Still transgender? even after..?
im not trying to be rude or offensive or anything like that at all. im so sorry if i say something offensive, i dont mean to, im just kinda confused.from what i know the word Transgender mean someone whose body is not the same as their...everything else. right? okay, well, if someone is biologically male yet really female , and like males i assume, because sex and emotions is all brain chemistry, not body and has an opperation to make them physically female..them they are technically female and like males. so then they become " straight" right? do they no longer belong to the LGBT commuinty? what happens post oprtn, i mean do they them ust suddenly identify as " straight" or did they indenitfy as striaght to begin with? im really not trying to be arogant or anything, sorry if it comes off that way. thanks so much for help < 3
Would an transgender go to a gay or straight bar?
To find someone.I imagine if there exists a bisexual etc. bar, you'd go there... but I don't know if such a thing exists. I've only ever heard of a Straight and Gay Lesbian bar.I'm talking MtF, too. I have an interest in guys, but the question arises What bar do you go to? A gay guy looks at a transgender, sees breasts, looks female and goes " A girl. Must be here as a lesbian, not a guy." though the girl has a penis He doesn't know that. And he might only go for people who look like men anyway. You go to a straight bar and you have a guy who's all " Yeah, hawt foxy babe." , hit on you, and then if when you get into bed or when you tell him you have a penis, he'd be all " WUT. GROSS " and walk away, because he's straight.It's a pime taradox of misleading. The only type of person you could find that would like your body, would be a Bisexual, Pansexual or Polysexual person Though aware sexuality is defined by sex Biological body , the appearance and genitals are contradictory to ones appearance attraction.And that is why I have come here to question. What.I'm not sure if you're all retarded or dense, but I don't have any transphobia's and I know sexuality isn't transgendered related.Perhaps youse should actually read what my question is and the hypothetical situation rather than stating what You go to.

Oh no, a transgender issue?
I've recently come out as transgendered. Well, came out to myself anyway. I have friends that I've been discussing it with and I was telling them I might be. I've been having trouble with trying to find a new name. I don't like ordinary names like Joe, Fred, John, etc. I want something more out of the ordinary, but don't know where to look. Are there books that are full of names to look at? Websites? And, if anyone answering is transgendered, how did you know that your new name was the perfect one. Advice would be greatly appreciated Oh, I forgot to tell you that I was born female because I see someone commented with female names. Sorry
Why are we so accepting to call a boy "she" & a girl "he" when they are transgender?
i'm watching a show " Tyra Transgender Children." before i noticed, i'd called a boy " her" and " she" about 5 times. and other people do the same thing while watching stuff like that, why?about the show the kids really DO look like the opposite sex, like there face body, even before there hair was cut grown. i think thats wierd. 1 kid would attack anyone that called " him" a her or dressed her in dresses since she was 2.Couman, iether way. Redheaded Sunshine there not really, the " girl" still has " boy parts" , just long hair. and the " boy" still has " girl parts" , but with short hair.Couman yeah, i would usually do that, but i just happen to realise it while im watching the show with children.
Transgender? Your opinion? Theories?? anything?
I'm really curious how many of the population disagrees with this?Have any ever gotten married?would you date one that is bisexual?are people generally born to choose to be transgenders or just uncomfortable with the gender and chose to be both or opposite?I am just ridiculousy curious... PS. I am thinking of becoming a male not sure yet but I am going to have some council help to clear my mind first..
A Transgender question about my friends?
I am 20, a male to female who is out and but not started yet. My family and friends know the history, my current status and the route of my future. BUT3 4 of my " closest true friends" for 5 and 7 years so far are now re assessing if they should be my friend in the future because I will be someone different, they don't believe me, they are in denial , according to them as well as a lot of other stuff. SO the question is Do I drop them out of my life and make new friends? I Don't want to be the person they have to coordinate to hang out with so they don't look bad embarassed I wouldn't want to experience the friendships becoming sour because they are discussing this behind my back I understand individuals have their own viewpoints and freedom of speech but these are the only and close friends I got. I also understand people need adjustment time for this subject matter but some have said that they may fake that they are my friend in the future or leave me altogether. True friends ride along no matter what right? ...Mabey its like how the lotto determines who your real friends are LASTLY don't be a troll and bash on me that I am transgender, I have enough shit as it is
