I have been trying to think of a good word to describe being Transgender as well as bisexual. I am mtf and identify more as "female" bisexual, if that makes any sense (or closer to being lesbian-bisexual, or somewhere around there). I immidiatly think of transsexual, but that doesn't really fit it i think. And besides, it is possible there could be a catchier word (that isn't transbisexual...too long)
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Lol why can't it just be stated as bisexual still? It still fits, but why keep sexuality within the binary, and why not try and branch it off to the "pan" all sexual deal.
Or are you saying you don't fit in to the sexuality of say someone going through the transsexual or transgendered state? </joking aside...
Why can it not be just considered bisexual still... It fits the criteria.

Me. (First person). You (second person)
I only ever answer to "Who am I?" And the answer is always the same "I'm Catherine, who are you?"
If someone asks, What am I? I just ignore them and walk away. If they can't work that one out, it's their problem, not mine.
Speak to you as soon as I shear the sheep.

Maybe we don't need new word for every variation in our identities. Does anyone else think this may contribute to divisiveness among people who should be allies?

I think it could in some situations, but on the other hand I do understand that having a specific word that describes your identity makes some people feel better. To me, gender and sexuality are two completely different things and I don't feel the need to combine them into one term... but I can see why other people might want to. I think the most important thing is that we see each other as allies, like you said.
