*** Person who lives as gender opposite to anatomical sex, i.e. person with penis living as woman. Sexual orientation varies. ***
( In order to understand the difference between someone who is gay, lesbian, or bisexual, and someone who is transgender, you need to know the difference between sex and gender. Simply put, sex is polarity of anatomy, gender is polarity of appearance and behavior. As one gains familiarity with transgenderism, these definitions quickly break down, but they serve as a good starting point.)
