When it comes to expressing your gender identity, navigating labels can be tricky. For those identifying as transgender or non-binary, finding the right words is essential.
Obviously, it’s important for people to use language that respects and reflects your identity. Outdated or offensive terms can be hurtful.
However, it’s important to remember that you’re more than just a label!
Ultimately, what matters most is how you personally want to be addressed, regardless of where you fall on the gender spectrum.
So, let’s talk about it!
Do you have a particular term or label that resonates with you – such as crossdresser, transgender woman, non-binary person, or something else?
I’m eager to hear your thoughts, so let’s continue the conversation in the comments below!

I think of myself as somewhere on the transgender scale-becoming more and more feminine.
I guess I see myself as both male and female, but I do feel like a woman, so I would have to say transgender woman. My SO, (gg),told me that she sees me as her partner instead of boyfriend or girlfriend.
Presently I am a Transgender Woman. After complete my Transition I am a woman.
I would think of myself just a woman after transition, period.

I’m a trangender female who just sees herself as a female and once my transition is complete I will only see myself as just a female (women). The detail will only be between myself and my partner who ever she is.
I usually say crossdresser if I tell anyone, but I wouldn’t mind another label, such as Transwoman, because as many of us, I associate with both genders, but I find myself uncomfortable when people say ‘sir’, or ‘mister’, because I am trying to identify with my female self much more.
