i had a quick overlook but couldn't find such a topic

i discovered some terms that are not very common e.g. "newhalf" (japanese term) --> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=newhalf

very commen is shemale but as far as is know that's offensive to most TGirls who don't take part at the porn industry/to prostitute themselves
Transsexual and Transgender are famous, too, i think TS more in the media as a kind of voyeurism and TG more about the single individual with all the identity problems and their integration into society

ladyboy is used for mostly asian TGirls(?)

dickgirl and futa(nari) girl are more part of the adult comic and hentai scene


i don't know if my question is very easy, cuz i should ask which term you use for all ppl with gender identity troubles, shouldn't i?

but i think most here at the board only know or were thinking about man --> woman and in majority with a sexual content
so let me ask: how do you call a so called "M(an)2F(emale)"

have you ever thought about how tol call them? do you think there is that problem or do you think to talk about this problem creates even more troubles

i talk to much^^ let's talk together, especially what is offensive and what isn't would be very interesting



[unfortunately i think it's not possbile to choose more than 1 option]

I call them women, unless they tell me otherwise.

Same here, unless the conversation is about distinguishing them from GG's and then I try my best to still use 'tgirls' as little as possible...

Depends on the woman and the context. Tgirls are women in my eyes, so woman is my first choice. For some, and in social context, transwoman or transsexual woman is preferred where the distinction is appropriate. Tgirl is an acceptable, umbrella term, which puts it far ahead of all porn-oriented terms. Ladyboy is appropriate only for Asian transwomen and is less derogatory than other porn-oriented terms, but still not ideal.

They are "Ladies" to me and, I think all of them should be insulted by your obvious deletion of that term from you list. Just shows where your head is at.

Depends on context of conversation or written word. Generally I call them girls or women. Transgender or TG is a term I use too, mainly when writing.

In the parlance of my particular branch of the military, we refer to TG's as 'beenies'.
