What are your opinions on using transgender vs using transexual? Ive been seeing more trans feminine people use transexual to refer to themselves these days and I thought I had it figured out but im confused. Originally, how i saw it was transphobic dolls trying to distance themselves from the rest of the transgender community at large. But the more i read about trans theory and talk to trans women, im finding more and more "cool" trans women calling themselves transexuals. What am I missing?

Idk personally I'm using transsexual now to be clear that I transed my sex

But how can others be sure you aren't trying to say you transed your sexual orientation or are identifying as a chaser instead? /j

Annoying that somehow people assume transexual is about sexual oriention, I guess because it sorta seems like "homosexual" in construction?
