	Some nonbinary people who transition call themselves transsexual, whereas other nonbinary or genderqueer people who don't transition can call themselves cissexual. (For example, [[Chanda Prescod-Weinstein]] is an "[[agender]] cis-sex woman".) It is possible to be both transgender and cissexual, if gender and sex are considered to be separate aspects of a person. That said, it is a choice for each person what labels they are comfortable with using for themself, and they may find other ways to label their gender.
