Transgender vs Transgendered

"The addition of -ed is extraneous and gramatically incorrect, only verbs can be transformed into a participle with -ed, and transgender is an adjective. Before reverting, please discuss on the talk..."

It's not an addition, -ed was the first form to exist. It is not grammatically incorrect in any way. Having the -ed suffix does not require the word to be a past participle. The grammatically correct version is transgendered. It is a direct correlation to the terms male gendered, female gendered, cis-gendered, etc. Gender is a noun, gendered is an adjective.

Further discussion, transgender is not the correct word for all forms of speech, especially as we have other options that are correct.:

Noun/Adjective(referring the person)	Noun(referring to the gender)	Adjective(referring to the gender)
male	male gender	male gendered
female	female gender	female gendered
trans	trans gender(with or without space)	transgendered

@50.77.156.102: Given that several reliable sources suggest that the term is 'transgender', we should really use the term that most reliable sources prefer. NottNott|talk 16:05, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
