Many of the "transgender" types in SF are gay guys trying to get laid, but don't meet the "hunk" standards of the SF gay community.

Transexual......................................someone who accepts that they are male/female, but chooses to wear clothes of the opposite gender on a full time basis.

Just my opinion though....

Status: offline 		transgender and transexual is not the same thing so linking them together in a poll is not very productive.

What do I think when I hear either term???

I think they are a person first and foremost and if they are a nice person then I'd like to get to know them, if they are an uptight, chip on the shoulder, angry individual then I want nothing to do with them

Just like any other orientation, creed, race or breed.

Status: offline 		The term transgender annoys me somewhat, simply because the word gender is a grammaticle term, and was never intended to describe physical attributes. The secret is out now, I'm a closet language nerd.

Maybe I'll come up with a better response when my brain is working at better capacity.

Status: offline 		I'm attracted to persons of complex gender.

I've never felt comfortable in the 'hard masculine' / 'hard feminine' dichotomy, I've always existed in between . . . . Discovering the notion of intergendered has really helped me find a more comfortable fit in the universe . ... .

As for the one 'twue' use of the word 'gender' -- language is as fluid & changing as the people who use it . . . . . . Language is not a cage (unless, of course, one wants to be encaged . . . . . )
