Transgender vs Transsexual
People should not rewrite history. Usage may change, but if they were written that way in 1952, and the person never used the word "transgender," it is incorrect to use that word. Christine Jorgensen was a transsexual. Her personal autobiography never used that word, and changing it is tantamount to rewriting history. MuseWiz (talk) 01:36, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

The first edit to this article said "But she was up to the attention and she became a very willing spokesperson for transgendered people". Christine did talk on Gender Issues, and Transsexual Issues, but did not talk about Transgender Issues. The OAH Magazine of History (March 2006) article Transforming Sex: Christine Jorgensen in the Postwar U.S. said: "She expressed her opposition to sexism and anti-gay initiatives, but mostly she spoke out in favor of transsexual rights". In Christine Jorgensen; a personal autobiography by Jorgensen, Christine, 1926-1989 Published in 1968, nowhere do you find the word transgender, but you do find the word transsexual. The correct term for this is Transsexual.

To me, there are many glaring political and historically incorrect references that can be easily documented in this article. Words have historical meaning. Yes transgender may be argued to be a neologism but since this references the words used by Christine, then you should not be allowed to modify the words, especially when the words have different meanings and historical references. This is not a soapbox but an encyclopedia.

I understand the timeline, and that when the article was first published in 2003, the term transexual was either phased out or on the way out of Common Parlance. But if you are saying what Christine talked about, you need to use her words and not modify them. Christine "Spoke out in favor of TRANSEXUAL Rights", not as a spokesperson for transgendered people.
