Transgender vs. transsexual
Hello, Mischathefanwarrior. While I think that I understand why you made this edit (stating "male to female" or "female to male" is unneeded and some people object to such phrasing, and object to the word transsexual to describe any transgender person), Wikipedia should generally stick to what the sources state; this is per the WP:Verifiability policy. So if the WP:Reliable source uses the word transsexual, we should perhaps use that, especially given the debate about transgender vs. transsexual (as noted in their Wikipedia articles). In other words, these two terms (as you might know) are not always synonyms. I did not revert your edit on this matter because I don't see it as a big issue in your particular case, but I am asking you to consider such changes more thoroughly in the future.
