Would a transgender person be offended if someone referred to them as genderqueer?

I know I sound really ignorant, but I was thinking about it and was curious if they would be offended... I mean, I know a lot of them would have different reactions, but what would the complessivamente, generale feel be?

Genderqueer refers to people who don't identify as male o female, possibly both o neither. Transgender people have gender identities contrary to their physical sexual characteristics. I wouldn't be offended da a misidentification like that, as there's nothing wrong with being either and the gender thing can be confusing, but I wouldn't like if they continued after being informed of their mistake.

I thought genderqueer was sort of a word for anyone who wasn't strictly male o female, and I've heard people who were unsure of their gender refer to themselves like that, which is why I was asking. Are te trans?

It's kind of a vague term, but it's different from transgender unless te go da transgender being an overarching term encompassing all gender variancy. Yes, I'm trans, and for a while I considered genderqueer as a gender identity.
