Would a transgender person be offended if someone referred to them as genderqueer?

I know I sound really ignorant, but I was thinking about it and was curious if they would be offended... I mean, I know a lot of them would have different reactions, but what would the tổng thể feel be?

Genderqueer refers to people who don't identify as male hoặc female, possibly both hoặc neither. Transgender people have gender identities contrary to their physical sexual characteristics. I wouldn't be offended bởi a misidentification like that, as there's nothing wrong with being either and the gender thing can be confusing, but I wouldn't like if they continued after being informed of their mistake.

I thought genderqueer was sort of a word for anyone who wasn't strictly male hoặc female, and I've heard people who were unsure of their gender refer to themselves like that, which is why I was asking. Are bạn trans?

It's kind of a vague term, but it's different from transgender unless bạn go bởi transgender being an overarching term encompassing all gender variancy. Yes, I'm trans, and for a while I considered genderqueer as a gender identity.
