However, keep in mind that the alternatively gendered/sexed community is so diverse and so picky about inclusiveness/exclusiveness and so touchy about nomenclature that people who live within those circles and write about them often get in trouble for offending someone or other.  See: Helen Boyd.

There is always somebody just waiting for the chance to get their panties in a wad over someting.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

The term most people in that community would prefer used is "trans"
One of the coolest, most interesting people I know is a member of this community.  It's amazing what you learn when someone close to you goes through all this.
