Transgender refers to individuals whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. This can include people who identify as male, female, or non-binary, and may choose to transition socially, legally, or medically to align their external appearance with their gender identity. The transgender community faces various challenges, including discrimination and lack of access to healthcare. Advocacy for transgender rights aims to promote equality and acceptance, ensuring that transgender individuals can live authentically and without fear of prejudice or violence.
