Wew, Transgender! Really beautiful people, huh? Here, we are talking all about transgender people! Transgender people are people who transitions to the opposite sex as they were assigned to the wrong body with the wrong gender.
A Transgender woman is not gay and a Transgendet man is not lesbian!
A Trans woman identifies as a she/her while a Trans man identifies as a he/him.
Transgender people have a gender identity or gender expression that differs from their assigned sex. Transgender people are sometimes called transsexual if they desire medical assistance to transition from one sex to another. Transgender is also an umbrella term: in addition to including people whose gender identity is the opposite of their assigned sex (trans men and trans women), it may include people who are not exclusively masculine or feminine (people who are genderqueer or non-binary, including bigender, pangender, genderfluid, or agender). Other definitions of transgender also include people who belong to a third gender, or else conceptualize transgender people as a third gender. Infrequently, the term transgender is defined very broadly to include cross-dressers, regardless of their gender identity.
Being transgender is independent of sexual orientation: transgender people may identify as heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, or may decline to label their sexual orientation. The term transgender is also distinguished from intersex, a term that describes people born with physical sex characteristics "that do not fit typical binary notions of male or female bodies". The opposite of transgender is cisgender, which describes persons whose gender identity or expression matches their assigned sex.
The degree to which individuals feel genuine, authentic, and comfortable within their external appearance and accept their genuine identity has been called transgender congruence. Many transgender people experience gender dysphoria, and some seek medical treatments such as hormone replacement therapy, sex reassignment surgery, or psychotherapy. Not all transgender people desire these treatments, and some cannot undergo them for financial or medical reasons.
Most transgender people face discrimination in the workplace and in accessing public accommodations, and healthcare. In many places they are not legally protected from discrimination.
The meaning of going through a transition is to go through the process of turning into the gender that they want to be.
This is how transition goes : many people who are transgender start off by taking hormones! Trans women take estrogen shots/pills/pads while Trans man take testoterone shots/pils/pads. This slowly helps them develop the features of the gender they want to transition into! When things are going well, they can opt for FRS (facial reconstruction surgery) to either make them look more feminine or masculine! Trans women need to remove their bust for a flat chest while Trans men need to put in implants to have breasts! The most important and life changing step for Trans people is to sexual reassignment surgery!! Trans men are usually able to grow out a penis by taking testoterone but testicle implants are needed to complete it! As for Trans women, their penis has to be stripped down and an opening is needed to be made to create a vaginal opening. The aesthetic of the vagina and vulva will be handled by the doctors.
After the transitioning process is complete, they are finally real men and real women! A valid person to everyone!
Here is how you can support Transgenders :
NEVER out anybody!
Bleakly, being trans and out is dangerous. Never, ever out a person without their express permission; this is not a thing that can be done and then apologized for later. If you see a person on the street that you know to be trans, it is a private matter and not appropriate to tell your friends that the person is trans. It is also not appropriate to mention anything that would 'out' a trans person if you are with that person in a public setting. The act of outing a trans* person means potentially endangering their jobs, their families, and their bodies. Even if you're "sure everybody would be OK with it," don't. That is not an oopsie you can fix.
