Sexual identity= how you think about/express yourself, your biological sex, and your sexual orientation. Gender role= how you express yourself, dependent on society. Gender dysphoria= incongruence between sex at birth and how you see your identity: transgender people don"t always love this terminology, association of depression. Queer= this is okay for those in the population to use, not for others outside the community. Asexual= doesn"t mean you never have sex, just that attraction is infrequent. Pansexual= attraction to other people that are a different gender from your own, attracted to the person not the physical gender- Cisgender= gender correlates with sex you were born with.
