Transgender Theory

Transgender Theory explores the understanding of gender identity, emphasizing that gender is not strictly tied to biological sex. It asserts that individuals may identify as a gender different from the one assigned at birth and that this identity is valid. The theory advocates for the recognition and respect of people's self-identified genders, highlighting the significance of social, cultural, and psychological factors in shaping one's experience of gender. It also seeks to challenge societal norms and biases that marginalize transgender individuals, promoting inclusion and equality.
