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 Outdated or offensive terms can hurt, so it’s okay to set boundaries about how others address you.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!
Love,
Lucille
I look at myself as a third sex, so I tell people I have both sexes in me and I show my best side that way. I love to dress as a women, but in joy doing male things.nice tops and jean for me every day, ever at work.
I have struggled with labels all my life. I have been ridiculed and belittle more times than I can count. I would love to a genetic female but I am not. I feel the best way to describe me is that I am transgendered (male to female). As this is not a black and white issue having many shades of grey on the continuum of gender orientation this description best fits me.

I must confess that if I had to choose a label, it would be “LUCKY”!
The openness & emotional awareness I have as a fem-male is amazing!
How so much wider my Horizons have become since starting my journey with Flat2fem… Until I discovered Lucille’s site, I had battled to suppress my cravings to explore my female identity. But now I have 38B Breasts I am finally comfortable with my body! Would like someday to look at becoming female fully and removing male parts… But my partner wouldn’t accept that… She now has the best if both worlds! Guess she’s Lucky too…. : ) x
Hi, I don`t really Label Myself with any of the Names, but if I do use one it is Crossdresser. Regards Julie
also I really hate the the word “Gurl”. It’s really demeaning and the people that it means that were not good enough to be Girls or Women if we choose.
Crossdresser or Woman is the only answer I will accept.
I do not really care what one chooses to call us, but to me I prefer to simply be refered to as a female who just happens to have male features. Perhaps that means I choose not to have a label. But either way one thinks of it, the saddest fact I myself have to face is the fact that my wife cannot face who I really am. I try to understand her point of view, and therefore seldom refer to myself as anything.
I am a trapped male, wanting to be, not a woman but a lady, dress in nice pretty satin dresses, mini skirts,wear make up and just go about life a woman, I ask why can’t a male wear a dress? Why can’t a male wear satin? I love to look pretty, can you help mefind a place in this world where one is really welcome to do this and live as they wish?
