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 Outdated or offensive terms can be hurtful.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’m in a constant state of confusion! I used to be more masculine but over the past few years, I’ve come to embrace my Femme side. Most weekends, I’m in drag from Friday to Sunday!
But one things remained the same; LABELS, can’t define me. I am who I am!
The gender spectrum is broken & I love the mess. Step on stereotypes with 6 inch heels!
hi lucille i need someone talk to me around femme thinks somebody touch me transvestite or woman.thanks lucille bye,bye.
I generally do not like labels, but if folks insist, i prefer either
my name, gender gifted, or “Two Spirit” as I spend time in both gender roles, although less frequently in male.
I hate labels and I don’t go a long with them I am a female on the inside and I know it and I don’t care what other people think. They just know that I am female and that’s all they need to know.
i call my self a wo-man i am a very feminine soft female on the inside ihave always known that i was a girl but growing up with two brothers i used to hide my girl self but now when i am at home i can be my female self all the time] sister ladolfia

I think there are 2 types of people. Those who have problems dealing with anyone not normal to their standard and the rest of the world. I think the rest of the world likes to know how you see yourself so they can interact nicely / appropriately / intelligently with you. Just a shame most of the business world is operated by “normals”. I have no problem telling those who care to ask I am transgendered (no opps yet) And I have very very rarely had a store clerk upset with me. I fact they are mostly all very friendly and offer to help me with what ever I am shopping for.
I am still struggling between thinking of myself as a man and preferring to be a woman. I don’t know if ever I will resolve this. This is not a conflict but something which needs to be settled in me in the fullness of time and especially in this day and age I am living in. As long as I get along with my contemporaries and am happy with myself I think this is the main thing.
