There is no comparison. You're question is like asking what's the different between a Washington Apple and a bicycle?
A lesbian is a woman who is attracted to sexually and emotionally to other women. But she is a woman and knows she is.
A transexual is a person who identifies with the opposite gender than the one he or she was born biologically. Some transsexuals are homosexual and others are not.

It would be easier to give you the difference between a rock and a loaf of bread , because both are real and we can relate as to what they are. Transexual and lesbian are labeling terms and any speculation to there differences would be on stereotypical evaluation. Individuals are just that, so let's leave our individuality alone.

The word transsexual changed into coined by using Dr. D.O. Cauldwell in 1949. In 1966 Dr. Harry Benjamin and his colleague Wardell Pomeroy split the which ability in to transvestite and transsexual to point 2 very different diagnostic categories. in the overdue Nineteen Seventies through his disdain for the time period transvestite a crossdressing guy named Charles (Virginia) Prince coined the time period transgender to point a crossdresser not a transsexual as he hated TSs and changed into fairly homophobic to boot. because that that element an awesome many human beings has taken the time period transgender to advise merely about absolutely everyone who gender version in the course of the spectrum from heterosexual crossdresser, drag queen/king, shemales, and performance erroneously extra transsexuals to that record. this wide mistakes helps even now to reason harm by ability of the DSM V transformations. between those transformations: Transsexuals will proceed to be in DSM V to placate the transgenders. data is in that TSs at the instant are to be categorised with absolutely everyone who's gender version This quantities to an finished reversal in each and every thing executed because that Dr. Harry Benjamin made a positive vast difference. . to boot to that one concept has crossdressers being dealt with with pharmacology and be dealt with as mentally ill. there's a real vast difference yet many human beings refuse to make certain what the horrid outcome of including anybody to a similar nomenclature is doing. seem all of it up on line in case you do not believe me. this can be a disaster. Sharon Transsexual woman and not in any respect a transgender!

.Transexuals are into physical augmentation to enhance their conformity appearance to the hetrosexual norm. Lesbians may change attire and even act somewhat tomboyish but do not actually hide the fact that they are female.
