So to talk about being "trans" like it's a whole new gender, to me kinda invalidates her identity with being female. Same would go for transmen.Since there's a lot of other gender identities like genderqueer and so on I prefer to distinguish only between male and female (born as such and identify as such) and trans* (the asterisk means all other possible gender identities). Regardless of my opinion I have no right to tell people what they are and I wouldn't want people telling me that if I wanted to be a woman all of a sudden. I used to think negatively of trans* but I met two awesome trans people and I changed my mind
I do think a third gender, "androgynous" is very valid though.
Of course I'm not any of these things, I'm a male biologically and mentally. So it's just my opinion, I understand if people disagree.
I guess "intersex" as well but that's not really a gender, it's literally being born physically between the male and female sexes.
Bennyboy isn't asexual a sex orientation?
