What's the difference between Queer, Transgender and Intersex?

Transgender is someone that feels like the opposite gender of the one they were born to. Intersex is someone born with born genitalia. Queer on the other hand is a lot harder to explain, it's someone that doesn't feel they fit in the sexual orientation categories and tend to, but not always, lean towards the same sex.

Queer tends to describe sexual preference - Gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual, pansexual... most anything but straight. Transgender is when someone feels as though they should have been born of the opposite gender they are. A male who really feels like a female, or a female who really feels as though she is male. Intersex is when someone is born with traits or organs of both genders.

From my understanding, Gender queer is when one doesn't identify as one of the binaries (male and female) or identifies as both or one and another, etc. Transgender is when an individual identifies as one of the binaries and it doesn't match their birth sex. Intersex is a medical term applying to those who are born with partially developed genitalia or genitalia that partially resembles both of the binary sexes.

Queer is a umbrella term for any LGBTQ+ member to identify as. To identify as transgender is to identify as a gender different than the sex you were born as. And intersex is to be born with 2 sets of apposing genitalia, intersex is not a gender and many intersex people can identify as male or female.

Queer is a general term for people in the LGBT+ community, but some consider it a slur. Transgender people wish to transition from one sex to another, sometimes medically and sometimes just in lifestyle. Being intersex is a genetic condition meaning that your genitalia or chromosomes don't allow for definitively male or female characteristics.

Typically when a person is intersex they have sexual organs that are not consistent with only the male or female anatomy. A person who is transgender identifies as a different gender then they were assigned at birth. in some instances when someone identifies is queer they may be talking about their sexuality button other instances they may be talking about their gender. where can we find that someone doesn't identify in the binary boxes of male or female or gay and straight.

Queer is anyone who is from the LGBTQ+ community. Transgender is someone who feels they are those who feel like they were born in the wrong body. Intersex people are people who are actually born with an anatomy which is not considered typically female or male. Many intersex people receive medical attention because they realize that there is something unusual in their bodies. Intersex is more of an external thing whilst transgender is more of an internal experience of gender identity that is different from most people.

Great question! Generally speaking, queer is an umbrella term for people who are not heterosexual (including but not limited to people who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, pansexual, etc.) but also can include people who are not cisgender as well (including but not limited to binary and non-binary trans people). Transgender is a term for people who do not identify as the sex they were assigned at birth, and can identify as a woman, a man, or a non-binary identity like genderqueer. Intersex people can also identify as queer, but are people who are born with ambiguous sexual characteristics, such as someone with XXY chromosomes or someone who has XX chromosomes but produces excess testosterone. Intersex people sometimes will identify as trans because often they are improperly assigned as male or female at birth even though they are actually a third sex - intersex.
