    "Transgender" is a word/concept that consists of "trans"=across and "gender". What does gender mean to you? Define and illustrate with examples.

    I'm asking out of curiousity, I'm the forever questioning person.

    Well if I go by my personal definition just for me. Gender is what sex I identify with subjectively, emotionally, physically, ect.

    Half the time I feel my brain works like a guys and the other half the gender I identify with. Or maybe it's both at the same time. I've thought if I had been born as male, I don't think I'd be that different from how I am now. (Besides he obvious physical differences)

    In the end it's not so important to me. My gender is a part of me. It is not me, nor does it define me by itself.
