Re: The term "transgendered". Please chime in
This sounds correct to me.
Transgender is born that way. A transgender woman is a woman born in a particularly male body.
A transgendered person in contrast can be for example a male sex worker who turns into some transition thing for business reasons.
I think both terms are ok in the right context, but calling a transgender woman transgendered assumes she has not been a woman always. So that cuts her rights as a woman.
I am a straight guy who is just addicted to transgender women, not an activist. But to me this explanation sounds human common sense, especially when you want to love a transgender woman as what she in the first line is, a woman!

No matter what you say, you're going to upset/trigger somebody somewhere.

I side with "transgender" (if it has to be called out at all, that is).

Re: The term "transgendered". Please chime in
trans - Latin for change or conversion to or across or moving towards or spanning.
"trans-Atlantic", "trans-continental"
i'm a cis male, but i've never heard any trans woman say it's wrong to say.

I find it amusing that a man who makes a living out using such terms as "Ladyboy" and "shemale" is not really the point of reference for what is suitable. I follow a number of girls on twitter (as he does as well no doubt) and they're fairly unambiguous about such terms.

Re: The term "transgendered". Please chime in
I actually probably have a wider view and more educated understanding than they, having met with more trans women and trans men, from different backgrounds and viewpoints, workdwide than they, and discussed this. My using the words Ladyboy or Shemale, in the context of the porn that our company sells, isn't relevant to this. So in no uncertain terms ... .

Re: The term "transgendered". Please chime in
So you're saying that your perpetuating of such dislikeable terms such as ladyboy or shemale (for pornographic convenience) is not relevant to this discussion of transgender terminology? I suggest it is. Such trite and lazy labelling is anathema to many and using the term "tranny" with all its negative connotations - at least in my country - is hardly helpful. But then, I don't single-handed support, develop, promote and peddle transsexual pornography, so cannot possibly be expected to have an opinion until i have done all that you have.
