I'm kinda surprised no one has chimed in. I have had a buttload of queer theory in school. Your tax dollars at work.
Transgender is the current term du jour.
Transexual is an older antiquated term.
Transvestite is usually a straight guy who gets off wearing women's clothing for sexual pleasure.
Transgender is the current term because gender is a sociological construct that differs depending on where you are in the world. Transsexual locates sex in a body. Since gender is a construct and is not the same all over the world it isn't located in a particular body type.
