What's your gender?

This is confusing. At least to me.

When referring to gender, one uses the noun of the gender with which you identify (man/woman or male/female is you prefer or even man/womyn for some people), its relationship to your sex (cisgender or transgender, often abbreviated to cis- or trans-) and, in the case of civ_king's question, sexual orientation in reference to your gender (woman attracted to women or man attracted to men -> homosexual, woman attracted to men or vice versa -> heterosexual, etc., etc., etc.).

For example, a man attracted to women who identifies as a woman is known as transgender homosexual woman (or transgender lesbian). A man attracted to men who identifies as a man is known as a cisgender homosexual man.
 
A transgender heterosexual woman.

I didn't say identifies, I said wishes, like they wish they were born female instead of male and they have a number of feminine characteristics.
 
They could be transgender, or they could be genderqueer (rejecting the gender binary), or they could be cisgender, depending on the nature of the wishes. Does the person feel they are a woman except with male bodyparts? If not, they are most likely not transgender. However, they could still be genderqueer, depending on various other factors.
 
I believe the Mayo Clinic identifies well over 100 different genders and variations. There is no scientific definition of gender.

Are you a metrosexual?

Technically yes, but I am not a big fan of that word. I just call myself "a straight guy with an exceptionally large feminine side".

A lot of people don't even know what metrosexual means, and furthermore, it's just a sub-branch of straight. A man attracted to women is straight, period. Even if he's really weird, he's still straight. So I'd rather be called "a feminine straight man" than make up some whole new word that doesn't even deserve to exist.
 
yes V.

I think TF should write a dictionary of his definitions on here too ;)
 
Yes. I've never actually seen a recent ThunderFall post. I wonder if he is still around. I'd like to thank him for the awesome website.

TraitorFish, on the other hand, likes to lecture about the thingness of things a lot.:)
He's too smart by half.:)

Edit: the cross at the top is a misclick
 
I'm so glad we all agreed to ridicule the supposed positions and methods of speaking of someone who is not even in the discussion currently.
 
No, really. Traitorfish is far too formidable a person to be ridiculed. Far from it.

Ehh...i'm sure TF doesn't take a few people poking fun at him on an internet forum too seriously ;)
 
Yeah I tease him because I like him. There is no malice in my jest.

I'd be flattered if people talked about me like that.
