This word is grammatically incorrect. It is used by conservatives that believe it is ok to discriminate against transgender people. The "Transgendered" are women that were born with male sex characteristics/men born with female sex characteristics (or non-binary people whose gender doesn't fit the binary). This isn't a made up story, as doctors can prove it with MRI scans.
Transgender is similar to intersex, but while for intersex people the problem is phisycal (reproductive organs partially/not functional) for the transgender person the problem is neurological.
Despite their physical attributes, trans women are women and trans men are men.
I used to call Jasper my brother before they came out as transgender.
My friend got diagnosed with gender dysphoria and she will soon take hormones to appear as feminine as she is inside.
A transphobic lady told my sibling that the transgendered are just trying to spread the trans agenda, but they ignored her.

someone who feels like they arent their birth sex. someone born with a vagina is afab, someone who is born with a penis is amab, and someone who has a mixture of both parts or a mixture of hormones is intersex.
transgender people do not have to have gender dysphoria, but they can have either dysphoria or gender incongruence. incongruence is simply not feeling right, while dysphoria is negative and has a negative impact on how you view yourself.
trans folks can be binary transgender, or nonbinary, have no gender, or a mixture of binary and nonbinary, as long as they dont identify with their agab.

An adjective meaning someone whose gender does not completely align with the one assigned to them at birth. It is often shortened to "trans".

Trans people can be binary (trans men and trans women) or nonbinary (genderqueer, genderfluid, agender, bigender). An important note is that, when referring to binary trans people you *should* include a space between trans and their gender (ex. trans woman vs transwoman) because trans men are men and trans women are women, just like you'd say blonde woman and not blondewoman. It's an adjective in this context, not a prefix. Likewise, it's transgender people, not transgenders or transgendered people.

Trans people do not have one "look" or "experience", no matter what patterns you might see in the ones you meet and talk to. Talk to the trans people in your life if you want to understand, but *be respectful*. What the person says is how you should refer to them and it is not up to you to "prove" or "disprove" their identity.

Trans people are everywhere and deserve to exist in peace. They should not have to deal with discriminatory laws and invasive questions. There are many resources online about what respectful questions to ask trans people are.

An antonym for transgender is cisgender, meaning someone who identifies as the same gender as they were assigned at birth. This can also be shortened to cis.
JAMES: Hey, just wanted to let you know that I'm transgender. I'd like you to call me James and use he/him pronouns for me.
JULIE: Thanks for letting me know, James! While we're on the topic, I'm trans, too! I'm good if you keep calling me Julie but I'd rather if you used they/it pronouns for me.
JAMES: Holy shit, really?
JULIE: Yeah, I don't have dysphoria but I tried they/it pronouns online and they really worked for me!
JAMES: Wow, epic! I'm happy for us!
