Transphobia refers to the fear, prejudice, or discrimination against transgender individuals or those who do not conform to traditional gender norms. This can manifest in various ways, including negative attitudes, social exclusion, or even violence. Transphobia can affect many aspects of life, including mental health, employment, and access to healthcare. The impact of transphobia is significant, often leading to feelings of isolation and low self-esteem among transgender people. Organizations like GLAAD and The Trevor Project work to combat transphobia by promoting awareness, education, and support for the transgender community.
