A shemale is an inappropriate name for transsexuals. Transgender refers to the mismatch between gender identity and biological gender at birth, so we should respect the gender identity of transgender people and avoid using discriminatory words such as shemale to insult and discriminate against them. On the basis of respecting others, understand and express the relevant information of transgender people in the right way.

Transgender people's cognition and acceptance of society and family is still very low. Many people lack understanding of transgender people, and it is easy to mistakenly associate gender identity with gender innate. This misunderstanding leads to contempt, exclusion, discrimination and misunderstanding among transgender people. In order to improve this situation, we need to establish an inclusive and respectful social environment and raise public awareness of transgender people.

As ordinary people, we should learn to respect the gender identity of transgender people and not bring them any burden and trouble. In interpersonal communication, we should try our best to use proper appellation to avoid discrimination in the use of vocabulary, so as to avoid tearing social relations because of improper use of words. Only by treating people with different gender identities as human beings can we build a progressive, inclusive and harmonious social environment.
