Some people that get surgery and hrt (hormone replacement treatment) identify as transsexual, but that term is mostly outdated and describes those specific people in the community, not a lot of people identify as 'transsexual' anymore. Transgender is an umbrella term that just describes a person who identifies as a gender other than the one associated with the sex they were assigned at birth.
Thank you so much for answering! I appreciate all you taking the time to help me. I was asked if I was and I didn’t know what to say. ;; I tried googling and I couldn’t get a proper answer (or I couldn’t see it with my dyslexia lol)
Again thank you, all of you guys have really helped me out!! Take care.
