Transgender Definitions
Cross Dressers
Wear clothing usually associated with the gender "opposite" to their
anatomical sex. Cross dressing may be done full- or part-time in the privacy
of the person’s own home or in public. Cross-dressers’ gender identity
remains the same as their anatomical sex, and they typically do not seek
medical treatment. Erotic pleasure is sometimes the motivation for cross
dressing, especially in younger people. Cross-dressers can be attracted to
either same-sex or opposite-sex partners, or both (LGBT, 2014c).
Drag
A term applied to individuals who cross dress often for entertainment
purposes (LGBT, 2014c).
Drag Kings and Drag Queens
Present larger than life images of men and women, exaggerating gender
stereotypes for entertainment, attention, or self-gratification (for National
Statistics, 2009).
Gay Men
Men who form their primary loving and sexual relationships with other
men (LGBT, 2014c).
Fag(got), Queen, Fairy
These are typically considered to be derogatory terms for gay men. Some
gay men have chosen to reclaim these words and use them to have positive
meanings, especially when using them in the company of other gay men
and/or lesbians (LGBT, 2014c).
Gender reassignment
The process by which an individual reassigns their gendered appearance
(LGBT, 2014c).
Gender recognition
The legal recognition of an individual’s acquired gender as the opposite of
the sex assigned at birth.
