Definitions and Usage
Transgender is a large umbrella term, as well as a gender identity, used as an adjective to describe not identifying as one's assigned gender at birth (AGAB). It can be used in a binary sense (an assigned female at birth person being a man, for example), or with nonbinary labels (an assigned male at birth person being genderqueer). Transgender individuals may or may not decide to transition medically, can choose to present in any way, and use any pronouns. The term is often shortened to "trans".

Related Terms
Although not all non-cisgender folks decide to use the term "transgender" for themselves, nearly all nonbinary genders fall under the trans umbrella. Transgender is not used as a gender in itself, it is simply a way to describe ones relation to their gender based on their biological sex.

Flags
The transgender flag is very recognizable and understandable. Blue represents masculine transitions, pink represents feminine transitions, and the white represents nonbinary transitions.
