It is also not a sexuality. It is a lifestyle choice.
That is false by definition.
Sexuality is the sum of your sexual preferences. It's what gets you horny. It includes, but is not limited to: the sexes and genders you are attracted to (sexual orientation), your kinks and fetishes, the frequency with which you desire sexual activity or release, the way in which you achieve sexual release, etc.
Your sex is the biological sex you were born with. Most humans fall within the binary of male or female, but as many as 2% of humans are to some degree intersex and may identify as either or both sexes.
Your gender is an identity that is formed as a result of both biological and environmental phenomena. When your gender matches your sex, you are a cis- (man, woman). When your gender does not match your sex, you are a trans- (man, woman, or just trans). You may indentify as genderqueer, where you have a gender identity that does not fall on the typical spectrum of masculine/feminine. You may have a fluid gender, sometimes considering yourself one thing, sometimes another. You may have no gender identity at all.
Your sexuality is not defined by what you identify as or your sex. Our words may change, but a trans person may be attracted to cis-men, trans-men, cis-women, trans-women, those in between, no one, and any combination thereof. Your sexuality may be that you are attracted only to male-gendered females (as in trans men who have not used medical means to alter their bodies). None of this has to do with the sex or gender identity you possess.
There, enjoy your definitions.

Oh my god, it just keeps getting better.
