Worth noting is that “transgender” is not a shortened form of “transitioning gender”, but instead itself derives from the same latin root as “transition”, as do “transfigure” or “transform”.
So, “transgender” is closer to “changed gender” than “gender in flux.”
(Which is similar to how “transphobe” or “homophobe” mean exclusion, as in “hydrophobic”, and not fear as in “arachnophobia”)
