When I tell people about my work with the TG/CD community, I occasionally get responses like:
“Oh, you mean drag queens?”
Or…
“You work with transvestites?”
There’s a lot of ignorance out there and I get annoyed when people mislabel “my girls”.
The fact that there are so many identities under the transgender umbrella only adds to the confusion.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this and would love to hear YOUR thoughts on the topic:
Which “label” do you identify with?
- Transgender woman
- Crossdresser
- Transwoman
- T-girl
- Something else?
Or do you not identify with ANY of these labels?
How do you feel about labels, anyway? Do you hate being labeled or do you wear your chosen label with pride?
I’d love to know, so let’s continue the conversation below!
Love,

I am between a cross dresser and a transgender woman I love the feel of when I dress like a woman I was meant to be a woman since I’ve been 5 years old always love to wear women’s clothes especially stockings and high heels makes me feel so very sexy
Trans woman, trans feminine.
I have always been labled a girl, from 2 years old till now. In school the boys called the girl with a penis. Every relationship I’ve had the person aways assumed I was female. Now when people ask, I say FREE for now I finally get to the chance to choose. And I choose to be myself.
