Post operative transvestite

Description:Oliven of Columbia University coined the term transgender in his reference work Sexual Hygiene and Pathology, writing that the term which had previously been used, transsexualism , "is misleading; actually, 'transgenderism' is meant, because sexuality is not a major factor in primary transvestism. A Movement Whose Time has Come", circulated in , identified transgender as a term to unify all forms of gender nonconformity; in this way transgender has become synonymous with queer. These terms have now been superseded by " trans man " and " trans woman ", respectively, and the terms "trans-masculine" or "trans-feminine" are increasingly in use. However, the concerns of the two groups are sometimes different; for example, transsexual men and women who can pay for medical treatments or who have institutional coverage for their treatment are likely to be concerned with medical privacy and establishing a durable legal status as their gender later in life. Distinctions between the terms transgender and transsexual are commonly based on distinctions between gender psychological, social and sex physical. In his book Transgender, an Ethnography of a Category, anthropologist David Valentine asserts that transgender was coined and used by activists to include many people who do not necessarily identify with the term and states that people who do not identify with the term transgender should not be included in the transgender spectrum.
