Gweler hefyd y cofnod am ‘transgender / ‘trawsryweddol’. Dyma ddyfyniad o’r wefan gires.org.uk: “The terms ‘transsexual’ and ‘transsexualism’ are now considered old fashioned, and are only likely to be seen in legal and medical documents. Even there, these terms are gradually being replaced with more acceptable terminology, such as ‘transgender’ and ‘trans’. In law, a transsexual person is someone who ‘proposes to undergo, is undergoing or has undergone gender reassignment’ (Equality Act 2010). The term transsexual is specific, and does not include non-binary identities. The word ‘transsexual’ should be used as an adjective, not a noun. It is, therefore, never appropriate to refer to an individual as ‘a transsexual’, or to transsexual people, as ‘transsexuals’.”
