Transgender Identity

Transgender identity refers to people whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. For instance, someone assigned female at birth may identify as male, or a person assigned male at birth may identify as female. Transgender individuals may or may not choose to undergo medical procedures to align their physical appearance with their gender identity. It's important to respect their preferred names and pronouns. Understanding and acceptance of transgender identities contribute to the well-being and rights of individuals within this community, allowing them to live authentically and with dignity.
