Original Note:
Both the concept and the word "transsexual" are inventions of the early 20th century. The first to systematically call transvestites "transsexuals" and claim they had a "gender identity" separate from their birth sex was Magnus Hirschfeld in the 1910s and 1920s. https://www.oed.com/dictionary/transsexual_adj?tl=true https://www.britannica.com/biography/Magnus-Hirschfeld
