Usually refers to a "person" with XY chromosomes the cause male secondary features but that "person's" brain is wired like a XX or a females brain. Often confused with a faggot, but more of a guy who wants to be a girl and have sex with straight guys. So they take estrogen, have their penis wacked off and turned into a vagina, and have implants to make breasts and dress up and use make up like girls. Tell tale signs are seeing a large male Adams apple on the neck of what looks like a girly girl.

a human being whose gender identity differs from her/his genetic sex...male to female (M2F) or female to male (F2M)...s/he may have gone through gender/sex reassignment surgery (post-op) or not yet (pre-op) or never (non-op)...
not to be confused with: intersexed - one born with mixed or ambiguous genetics; crossdresser or transvestite - one who dresses in the attire of the opposite sex, for males anything from panties or stockings to dresses and makeup; drag queen or drag/king - one who performs in attire of the opposite sex, usually a gay male or female entertainer...
transgender is simply an umbrella term for all of the above...the vast majority are crossdressers...NOT transexuals...wearing a dress, however pretty, does NOT mean that a guy is a transexual...and transexuals can be straight, gay or bi...
i can't believe the crap that's been written here about transexuals...it's all about gender identity and NOT just expression...

me...technically, i'm a M2F transexual, but i prefer to be known as a "transgedered woman"...since it's about gender identity and not sex...and i'm straight...i only date men...
think about that...if i dated women i'd be a "trans-lesbian"...

A term for a man who wishes to be a woman or is in the transition to becoming a true woman. Different than 'transvestite'

Get the transexual mug.
Is when a person identifies themselves with a physical sex that is different to their own biological one, A medical diagnosis can be made if a person experiences discomfort as a result of a desire to be a member of the opposite sex. for example a person may be born male, and is uncomfortable with their gender as a male and changes to a female, or a female may change to a male. It is a long process that they will go through and an expensive one too. "Transgender"
Transexualism seemed to make more sense to him as he glanced at his body. 'I should have been a girl.' He mumbled
