Transgender
Transgender people have a gender identity or gender expression that differs from their assigned sex . [1] [2] [3] Transgender people are sometimes called transsexual if they desire medical assistance to transition from one sex to another. Transgender is also an umbrella term : in addition to including people whose gender identity is the opposite of their assigned sex ( trans men and trans women ), it may include people who are not exclusively masculine or feminine (people who are genderqueer or non-binary, including bigender , pangender , genderfluid, or agender). [2] [4] [5] Other definitions of transgender also include people who belong to a third gender , or else conceptualize transgender people as a third gender. [6] [7] Infrequently, the term transgender is defined very broadly to include cross-dressers , [8] regardless of their gender identity.
