    Sorry, but gender is definitely a noun, so transgender must also be one. https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/gender

    Transgender is a descriptor (adj) not a noun.

    ...you could have just used their definition of the word itself:

    https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/de...on/transgender


    which in their book is an adjective. Come back in a few years and it may also be listed as a noun as language is dynamic and evolving.

    So transgender is an adjective even though gender is a noun, but transsexual is a noun even though sexual is an adjective. Any English professors here that can explain this?

    Sorry WesJohnson, you're just ahead of the curve on language development.
