I see those as different as well. Then there's how people interpret your gender expression and perceive your gender identity and treat you, which is where your privilege levels come in, and how that reflects back on your self-identity. All of these can be different or line up in a row, or partially line up. And people are struggling with grappling with these in relation to multiple definitions of transgender, and I think more of that grappling needs to be done with the definitions of cisgender as well, if it's going to be put as widely into currency, or you wind up reinforcing gender norms.
