Glossary
TransgenderAn umbrella term for people whose gender identity is different from the sex and gender role they were assigned at birth. Transgender people do not necessarily want to have sex-reassignment surgery (SRS), but often 'play' with gender or question gender roles. Transgender people can be heterosexual, homosexual, or bisexual, and may or may not want to identify as queer. Sometimes called transgenderist (one who lives full-time as their preferred gender but does not get SRS), Two-Spirit, tranny, or TG.See also: Assigned Sex, FTM, Gender bending, Gender Regime, Intersexed, MTF, Passing, Transphobia, Transsexual
