Do you know what transgender means?

I know what I think it means, because I have transgender people in my life and my community. I have had extensive conversations with transgender people, from their own perspective. I live in an area that probably (but not necessarily) has more transgender folks than your average/typical (if that’s actually a thing) town/city.

I’m not an expert, but I think I know what it means. I would just like to hear what other people think it means.

Please do your best to keep this discussion civil, or I will request that the Mods pull it, if they don’t do that of their own accord.
