Transage refers to individuals who identify as an age different from their biological age and want their age to be recognized legally as well as socially. This concept differs from transgender, which is a term used to describe individuals whose gender identity does not align with their biological sex. While transgender people may wish to change their appearance and undergo medical procedures to align their bodies with their gender identity, transage individuals may seek validation for their age and may carry out age-specific activities against societal norms. Transage has been a controversial topic, and many argue that it is not a legitimate identity as age is a biological and physical aspect rather than a social construct or identity.
