Crossdressing is something one does.
Transsexual is what someone is.
Now to fit the term transgender into the big picture seems to complicate matters but that probably is an apt term, the big picture.
Like a corpse deep in the earth I'm so alone, restless thoughts torment my soul, as fears they lay confirmed, but my life has always been this way - Virginia Astley, "Some Small Hope" (1986)
Sunlight falls, my wings open wide. There's a beauty here I cannot deny - David Sylvian, "Orpheus" (1987)
