  transgender is a complex topic, where consensual and precise definitions have not yet been reached. usually, the only way to find out how exactly people identify themselves is to ask them. and, sometimes, transgender people either cannot or will not define themselves any more specifically than transgender, queer, or genderqueer. books and articles written about transgender people or culture are often outdated by the time they are published, if not already outdated at the time of composition, due to inappropriate and/or outdated questions or premises. not only psychology and medicine, but also social sciences deal with transgender people, and each starts from a very different point of view, offers very different perspectives, and uses a different nomenclature. the difference is mirrored by the attitude of transgender people towards transgender issues, as can be seen in the articles listed below. ==people and behaviour== * transgender ** trans man ** trans woman ** list of transgender people ** transgender youth ** mtf ** ftm * transsexual * cross-dressing ** en femme * transvestism * drag ** drag queen ** drag king ** faux queen ** en travesti ** pantomime dame * gender neutrality * androgyny * genderqueer * genderfuck * packing (phallus) * sex and/or gender diverse * shemale * sissy * third gender * transvestic fetishism * transsexual pornography ===in non-western cultures=== * acault (burma) * akava'ine (cook islands) * bacchÃ¡ (central asia) * eunuch * evening people (india) * fakaleiti (tonga) * fa'afafine (samoa) * femminiello (neapolitan) * galli (ancient rome) * hijra * transsexuality in iran * kathoey (thailand) * khanith (arabia) * kÃ¶Ã§ek (turkey) * mahu wahine (hawaii) * meinmasha (burma) * meti (nepal) * maknyah (malaysia) * muxe (mexico) * newhalf ("ãã¥ã¼ãã¼ã") (japan) * transgender in china * transgender people in singapore * transpinay (philippines) * sworn virgin (balkan) * takatÄpui (maori) * two-spirit/"berdache" (north america) * waria (indonesia) ==basic terms== ===gender=== * bigender * cisgender * gender binary * gender blind * gender identity ** gender dysphoria * genderism * genderqueer * gender role * pangender * third gender * trigender ===sex=== * sexual characteristics ** sex organ or primary sexual characteristics ** secondary sex characteristics * sex-determination system ===intersex=== * disorders of sex development * [[herm
