Transgender is an umbrella term that includes many different expressions of gender. It includes cross dressers, trans-men, transsexuals, some fetishists, trans-women and a number of other gender variant identities. Transsexual is someone who lives exclusively in the opposite gender rather their birth gender. Some opt to take hormones/have reassignment surgery but many people do not.
