DESCRIPTION:

Globally, transgender people are attacked and often killed because of how they present themselves. Transgender Day of Remembrance marks the murder of transgender woman Rita Hester on November 28, 1998. It is a day to remember and honor all those killed for not conforming to social gender norms.

Transgender is a subset of homosexuality, commonly referred to as queer or on the "gender spectrum," an idea originating with Alfred Kinsey and popularized during the twenty-teens. Transgender people physically and mentally alter their presentation to coordinate with their feelings. This change is referred to in the community as gender transitioning and requires deploying one or more of the following tools: operations, social engagement, pronouns, and hormone therapy. These changes allow a person to transition in appearance, activity, and presentation from female to male or male to female. A transgender person typically chooses to dress to represent the sex to which they believe they should have been born.

A trans-woman is a man who has transitioned into presenting as female. A person referred to as a trans-man is a woman who has transitioned into presenting as a man. In the community, it is common to refer to birth sex as one's "assigned gender" and the transitioning to the opposite as one's "authentic gender." Hormones, behaviors, and surgery can alter many physical traits. They cannot change DNA and the physical ability to become pregnant or impregnate a person of the opposite sex via copulation.

Often confused with trans is non-binary. A non-binary person feels male on some days and female on others and presents differently depending upon the day. Non-binary people have not transitioned.

Approximately 1.4 million people refer to themselves as transgender worldwide (0.00175%), though this number increased exponentially in Western cultures within Generation Z (those born between 1997-2012) beginning in 2010.
