The thread belongs in the LGBT forum, imo.

Oops x.x sorry, though it is kinda random, I didn't realize there was an LGBT forum.

I think there has been a thread like this before but I'm not sure.

Also, you should include a cisgendered option.

I'm transgender by the way.

I think there should have been more poll options for a more accurate poll. branching off into more sexual identity's, just having transgendered options just means only transgenders will be able to answer.

I identify as agender (or as I prefer to say "Gender Neutral"), which wasn't an option. So I picked genderqueer because I'm known to be genderfluid in certain contexts.

I think mainly trans really, but kind of genderqueer. I think of myself as about 80% male.

Not sure what poll your looking at but I included just about every type of gender out there. O.o
I know there probably are more labels but they can mean the same as some mentioned..
What the heck is cisgendered?

The law recognizes 2 genders, Science 4, what are these other genders and who says they are real?
Isn't it kinda getting crazy a bit? Just saying..

Also the point of the poll is specifically transgender, bi-gender is closely related but perhaps I should have left that one out.
It's not a gender poll it's a poll to see who is or isn't transgender. :p

that'll probably be best, be sure to encompass all genders/orientations/sexual views... etc etc etc.

I'm unsure. I was born male and I don't want to be a woman. But I dislike many of the expectations and gender roles of society. And my personality is more sensitive and feminine than other guys my age.

Yeah, I'd make a new thread. Nonetheless, I voted. Bi-gender here (and I think the only one on the forum, though I could be wrong).
