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,
Lucille

A woman of course
I think of myself as a pretend girl who wishes I was a real girl.
I prefer the phrase TRANS GENDER OR T-GIRL OR SHE. I am doing this because I am a woman inside and that should fit the outside. It is an amazing thing that can be done now days.
am a transvestite , going toward a trans women, but environment impedes being a trans woman as much as I would like.
It’s not a label. It’s my essence. I am a girl who was born in the wrong body. And I work intensive every day to come to me.
Labels embarrass me.
I prefer transwoman. But as I get closer to SRS I have been think of myself as a woman with a trans past.
Most importantly, you are YOU and that is what counts!!
That is beautifully said, Janet, thank you

Great comment Janet, and an Amen to that one SISTA-Janet, I feel the same way almost always as my MARKER has been “F” since March 2010 ^_^ I cannot believe it, times flys, it will be a year I received my marker in 6 days, OMG. ^_^ and as I get closer to “fix” something in my “plumbing”… I get excited, frustrated and so many other emotions, but it becomes hard and up and down on many levels, but SMILES all around.
