Choosing the right words to describe your gender identity can feel tricky. For transgender and non-binary people, finding a label that fits is personal and important.
Using respectful language matters. Outdated or offensive terms can hurt, so it’s okay to set boundaries about how others address you.
At the same time, you are more than a label. What matters most is how you choose to define yourself, no matter where you are on the gender spectrum.
Do you have a label that feels right – like crossdresser, transgender woman, non-binary, or something else?
I’d love to hear your thoughts, so let’s continue the conversation in the comments below!

I label myself a bisexual cross dresser.
Hi there while every one here have their own opinion and views well I am not what to call myself but the word that come to mind ” Woman ” but lets not forget that our society also have a name for us . weir amounts the odd ones .
Love u all Jill
For my shrink I go with transgendered,but around my friends who know about me Topanga is just fine or if you’re really close just T will do.Labels have there place dealing with some,but daily life I’ve got no room for them.
While I don’t really like cross dresser, for me that means that there is some sort of line to cross. I don’t see it. then Drag queen While when i dress up i do feel like a queen! but why call it a drag! when it is so much fun! for me i call it what it is. I love the term transvestite it sounds fantasy, and classy. so why not
transvestite! no one really know what it means, what they get the point, so why not!
I would call myself a woman. I don’t want to look like one, move like one and behave like one, I want to be one! I read many magazines for women and I’m manly interested in typical female things, not just beauty, wellness and fashion…
The only label I would like to be called is a woman. I know some of the girls have different views and don’t mind labels like crossdresser and transsexual, but I feel different inside I am totally female and preferred to be called that.
Girl/woman
