"Gender" is just what you are in general, whether you are male or female. Trans is a prefex that means across. Like a Transaction is to take money, for example, and put it to another place. So transgender is going across the gender one is. So a transgender male wants and tries to be a female.

You are a girl but you want to be a boy however you still like boys what are you Transgender?

Gender Identity (the gender you consider yourself to be) has nothing to do with sexual orientation (the gender you are attracted to); therefor, a girl who considers herself male is an FTM transgender who can "like" boys or girls. Just like a biological man can be attracted to men or women. There is no difference between a transman and a genetic man aside from his chromosomes.

Gay is being sexually attracted to someone of the same sex as you, transgender is identifying a different gender than that listed on your birth certificate. A transgender person can be attracted to someone the same gender as the one they themselves were assigned at birth, so from a certain point of view it may look like gay and transgender people are the same. The difference is that a gay man still identifies primarily as male.

A transgender person is someone who's gender is different to that which they were assigned at birth - they do not have a 'new gender', they were always that gender.
