;Extract

:A transgendered person might be genderqueer, meaning that his/her gender is nontraditional in some way: s/he might feel at one with both genders, or s/he might be in the process of moving from one gender to the other. Hence, traditional words such as 'transsexual' and 'transvestite' are being supplemented with more ambiguous phrases like 'trannyfag' or 'girlboy' or 'intersexed' (which refers to both a medical condition in which a person is born with ambiguous genitals and a state of mind in which the person feels like both genders).
