Transgender = Transsexual ???? Since When?

[Candice Mae]

Ok, Candice, let's work that out for our mutual benefit.

I *do* have GD, but I'm in a special place where I don't have the slightest desire or need to 'correct' that.

I GET that people could do 'choice A' from column 1, I also understand that that is not the only available choice. Much less the best choice.

I can be a swishy girl all day long in boy-jean shorts and a T. I allow myself the room to wear girl clothes in order to validate myself. My wife is jealous of my 'girl mode' wardrobe. She gives me grief only because I can wear 'prettier' stuff than her, and that I get two wardrobes to her one.

I allow and enforce myself to be FEMALE while inhabiting an XY body. I FEEL female. I *interact* as a female. I am a girl in a stupidly male body.

I'm all here for discussion, sweetie.

MM, none of my comments have been completely directed at you. I referenced a CIS male CD, you've asked questions and I've obliged and answered them. I'm just giving examples based on what you've asked to convey my opinion, I can not speak for you or label you.

Not all TG people have to transition or transition fully (SRS).

As for the acting "girly", I've met a few gay men that act more feminine then some women I know, does that mean that they have GD or are TG? Vise versa I have a friend that is always right in there with the guys hunting/fishing/rebuilding engines/ and carpentry and she is 100% female. Societies gender norms and constructs can not be used to define a persons gender identity.
