As an afterthought, I think I might be entitled to point out that I (and others in the same position) who have had electrolysis, taken hormones and live as a woman full time am not a transexual, are wrong. While all of these things are done by those who ARE transexuals, it does not follow that all who do them are transexuals. This is the same false logic that society follows when it in effect says (wrongly in both cases) that homosexuals wear dresses and make up, therefore all males who wear dresses and make up are homosexuals. I’m sure most of you have been resenting that implication for as long as you’ve been TVs. Naturally I resent the assumption that I am a TS for the same reason—the logic is false. I, at least, know the difference between sex and gender and have simply elected to change the latter and not the former. If a word is necessary, I should be termed a “transgenderal.”

These culturally bound assumptions have bedevilled the entire anthropological literature on the berdache in Native American cultures, and it is because of this that I have followed the lead of Angelino and Shedd when referring to the phenomenon of the berdache-transgenderal, for as Fitzgerald (1977) points out: "A berdache . . . may be a transvestite, but a transvestite need not be a berdache; and neither need be homosexual."[…] transgenderal A term that is currently being promoted to replace "transsexual" (below). transsexual An individual who is psychologically motivated to assume the cultural identity, roles, and status of someone of the opposite gender and who views himself or herself in this way alone. Many transsexuals prefer the term "transgenderal." The gender "change" may be made without the assistance of male and female hormones or cosmetic surgery. Transsexual is not synonymous with "transvestite."

[…] there has been concern over prejudicial treatment of members of sexual minorities - gay men, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenderals or transexuals.

Putting it in terms of chromosomes leaves the person the same before and after surgery, thus eliminating the surgery as responsible for anything new except for the anatomical possibilities) and the transvestic heterosexual male who seeks the surgery as a means of justifying his transgenderal desires (as distinct from transexual) and establishing a new genital foundation for his/her self identity.
I am a cross-dresser by pleasure and inclination, a transgenderal person. To me for human beings to express themselves along gender lines is a wonderful and uniquely human phenomena.

One is transgenderal exemplified by the fa'afafine, hijra, and so forth, as previously discussed in “Fertility Benefit of Transgender: Helpers at the Nest”. That is what I term homosexual and heterogenderal.
1993, Robert Goss, Jesus Acted Up: A Gay and Lesbian Manifesto, Harper San Francisco, →ISBN:
God is transgenderal and panerotic. The biblical God is not characterized by apathy but by erotic passion for the oppressed. The biblical God manifests a preferential option for the powerless and the poor (anawim).
