Glossary

To help you find this site more informative. I have made this basic glossary to explain some of the terms, that you will find on this blog!
(1)MTF (male to female)
(2)FTM (female to male)
(3)Transgender (TG)..are basically people who were assigned a gender (usually at birth and based on their genitals), but who feel that this is a not a true or an incomplete description of themselves. May include other categories, such as transsexual; cross-dressers; tranvestite; consciously androgynous people; genderqueer; people who live cross-gender; drag kings ; and drag queens.
(4) "Going Stealth"..: After an a person has transitioned, this person may choose not to reveal their transsexual status to those around them (for example, to coworkers, friends, neighbors, etc.); this is referred to as "going stealth" or "being stealth."

There are plenty of websites that have more scientific definitions of the above-mentioned terms, such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender#Transgender_Identity etc.
