    I call people who use labels labelers I am not labeling them now but they are.

    Kelly,

    Loved your post. So why would anyone be offended? I don't know. Maybe some people naturally get up on the wrong side of their bed and get offended over little or nothing regardless of their affiliation. Did someone appoint Wikipedia the final word on everything?

    I'm with the "no labels" team. Words are used to convey a thought. We tend to get to wrapped up in a word with a generic meaning not being specific enough to describe ourselves and then get upset/defensive.

    I think there should be two rules for all on-line reading. Don't be annoying and don't be easily annoyed. The written word is not perfect.

    I agree Sue. Don't be annoying and don't be easily annoyed. But there are times when that statement is hard to apply, especially the second part.

    Hugs,

    I'm with Terri Jean. I think of Transgendered as an "umbrella term." And, it is useful as a term we can use for all of us that fall within The Spectrum.

    You all forgot about all The Variations for The "Transmen," if you want to include more labels. But lucky for all of us, we can also call them Transgendered.

    One more time, let's explore commonality's, rather than define ourselves as being different....it certainly accomplishes nothing!

    Peace and Love, Joanie
