What is transgender?

Transgender refers to individuals who identify as a gender other than the one they were assigned at birth. This is a deeply personal experience and can manifest in a variety of ways, such as a desire to transition medically, socially or legally. Gender identity is not tied to one’s biological sex, and individuals who are transgender may experience discrimination or intolerance from society. It is important to respect an individual’s gender identity and use their preferred pronouns and names to support their autonomy and dignity.
