Best Answer

It means that you fit into the society accepted theory of binary gender roles: there is only male and female and no blend, no spectrum. In general it means you have no question about where you belong when it comes to social rules of etiquette, family and sex roles, and you don't perceive anyone else as being anything other than 1 of the two binary genders.

Note that this is about perception, not truth. The "average" person believes that they are 'only' male or 'only' female when in truth everybody has grey areas of gender behavior: some women are aggressive, this is generally labeled as a male trait; some men are submissive and this is generally labeled as a female trait. Men nowadays take care of the children more often than their fathers and grandfathers did: this being a 'female' trait means that they are expressing (what appears to be) female behavior, and yet their physical sex (what's between their legs) hasn't changed, only the role has.

Are transsexual really women?

Transgender women are real in terms of them existing. If one is asking about whether they are genuine women or not is up to personal interpretation. Some would consider them as being on par with non-transgender (cisgender) women, while others would consider them valid members of their own separate gender. Then of course there are people who do not think positively about transgender women.


What would it be called if you are transgender but want to keep your male body?

Being transgender isn't something someone wants, it is something you are - just like being cisgender. Your body is that of your sex or gender, you don't have to go through hormone treatment or surgery when you are transgender - transgender means your gender is not that which was assigned at birth.

What is LGBT mean?

Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender (LGBT) stands for Lesbian - A girl that is attracted to other girls, Gay (A.K.A Homosexual) - A guy that is attracted to other guys, Bisexual - A gender (girl or guy) that is attracted to both genders, and Transgender - A guy or girl who believes that they were born as the wrong gender.. E.g. A boy that feels they should have been born as a girl. ----- Hey, sorry, but you kinda got it wrong on transgender... Transgender means that the person who is transgender does not think they fit into the binary genders (girl, guy). That person can feel uncomfortable in their bodies and want to be the opposite sex, making them a transsexual. So, basically, a transgender is somebody who does not fit into the binary genders, making them non-binary :) ~a random tranny
