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 Outdated or offensive terms can be hurtful.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!

Hi. I am a cross dresser. I like how ladies beautiful lacy underwear feels on my body. Only occasionally I can dress up fully and enjoy the sensuousness. Those times are exhilarating. I can never go out into the world dressed as a lady due to my height. A long dress for a lady only comes to my knees. I would like some boobs though to feel the lace bra cups. Since finding this blog I am going to have fun finding more nice things to wear.
i am a crossdresser, but as soon as i find a way to do it i will change every thing, and live as a woman. i am not gay, if i became a woman i would have to be a lesbian but that is alright with me. i do not like anything about being a man. so if i have to live alone it would be better. my biggest dream is to never wear any pants with a zipper in front. so if i can’t side zip or just pool them up i don’t want them.
I’m with you Kristeen! 🙂 I to hate everything about my male physical attributes! I would love to be fully “100 %” a Woman, outside, as well as in! Especially since “In” for me, is literally XXY. 🙂
the only boy thing i wear ever is shoes and socks on ocassion. I love fem wear so much i dont even have any boy undies any more, All WAYS dress at least 90% GIRL.I’m glad i look nice in a dress with the right curves and a respectable set of girls on top.if i had to wear BOY again i would go insane.I tried that and hated it.I think boys can be sweet but they cant be trusted so i prefer girls.my body is getting shapely enough i am at a stage where i can even look sexy in a boy shirt like some GG’s can.I know I can confuse some so sometimes purposely go out with male facail attributes, its like i dont care what they think and its like I’m in one of those moods where i’m neither a boy or a girl I could be both or neither and the best of each.I would have LOVED to be born in the right body, one that matches my spirit and soul.I would have loved being perfect in the fact that even with no make up they would know i was a girl from a block away.some times i get depressed because it feels like a lie.THEN IS IT REALLY??what saves me is Reality is how we preceive what is happening to us.It can be good, bad, exciting or boring,or pretty or ugly. its how we see it that matters.So my mood dictates how girly i will look in public.some times i look like like a girly boy, a boyish girl, or a girl or a boy wearing girl cloths most the time i feel it dose not matter but there are those times when you must look perfect, thats the most fun.

I’ve got a great friend that says I’m her half and half friend,she’s Native American they call us twin spirits. I consider myself to be someone who wore a man costume for the first fifty-five years of my life trying my best to live in denial. The next two trying to figure out who and what I was. The last six months started with an appointment with a psychiatrist to be tested and evaluated. Then an appointment with the endocrinologist. Brings me to ten weeks on testosterone blockers and eight weeks on estrogen. So I’d call myself on the way to becoming a woman of some kind and that’s all that matters to me.
I do not like any of these titles as they all seem to be divisive. I was born male but I have always felt more female. I always recognized this as different than orientation. Only now I feel confident in myself enough to start to express myself as how I feel. So I define myself as a person first and only if the subject comes up do I say how I feel. I suppose double spirit would be the most accurate.
I prefer transgender woman. Like Kaylee says, I used to think of myself as a crossdresser, but my feminine personality has now grown so strong that I feel like a woman all the time (although I might not be dressed like one all the time). I am proud to be transgender. It means I’m special.
I prefer to refer to myself as a woman. I am not a pre-op as I am basically paralyzed from my waist down due to Multiple Sclerosis. I have felt in touch with feminine feeling since birth. Fought it by being super masculine till my mother passed last March. I now present myself as Ricci but still love other women, I guess I’m a lesbian trapped in a male body.
The labels sre still confusing to me. I usually go with crossdresser. According to some of what I have read on this subject, I may be a transexual because I want to be a woman all the time. I feel like woman. I always have. Becoming a woman full time is very expensive. That is money I don’t have to spend. I need a sugar daddy or sugar momma to cover the cost of my transformation. I can be comfortable with either label. Unless somebody can tell me which label I shoul use, I’ll just consider myself as a transexual crossdresser.

I considered myself a crossdresser for the longest time but here recently my female persona has progressed and grown so much that I definitely consider myself a transwoman
