'''Transgender''' has two common definitions:
# As a synonym for [[transsexual]].
# Similar to [[transsexual]], but without having had a sex-change operation.
# Someone who does not conform to gender norms, anyone whose appearance since birth has neither been consistently male nor female. Thus it includes [[transsexual]]s, drag queens and drag kings, the [[intersex]]ed, transvestite fetishists, and androgynes.
# As a synonym for transsexual.
It is not to be confused with a whole host of "gender identities" (which [[liberal]]s see as separate from biological [[sex]]) under the umbrella of '''genderqueer''', which includes, besides transgender:
* Bigender (both man and woman)
* Agender (neither man nor woman)
* Genderfluid (alternating between genders)
* Third gender (found in [[India]]n culture, some [[American Indian]] cultures, and also invented by modern-day people)
