@PC police It is “transgender” individual not “transgendered.”
For example, an object can be “gendered” but a human is just an individual with a “gender.”
Sortof like…oriental =/= asian.
It may seem inconsequential to some people, but it is a big deal to others. It’s nice to just get it right and avoid problems.
@Victoria Thanks for the heads-up. We’ve updated accordingly!
@Actually not a pedantic correction: There’s no ‘-ed’ in ‘transgender’: my identity is not a passive state or something I undergo. Please fix if possible.
