A person whose understanding of her/hir/his gender identification transcends society’s polarized gender system. OBGLTC believes that the dichotomized system of gender is limiting; therefore, OBGLTC encourages everyone to think outside and beyond this schema. THIRD GENDER Male-to-Third Gender (born in body of male, believe self to be another gender)* Female-to-Third Gender (born in body of female, believe self to be another gender)* * People who are third gender often prefer "transgender" to "third gender" * http://archive.uua.org/obgltc/resource/tg102.html From Transgender 102. I see that some prefer to be called third gender and others do not. Just a question - do you think men easily accept FTM people? I think, IMO, that men have a much much harder time in accepting trans people.

In fact, I do not believe they would ever allow a transgener to be part of their "men only" space. I would love to be proven wrong.
