Transgender is an umbrella term related to several gender identities. What gender identities are grouped under the term transgender? Name one risk factor for people who identify as transgender.
What will be an ideal response?
Correct answers vary but should include a definition of transgender as any person whose gender identity and/or gender presentation differs from the gender assigned to them at birth or in infancy. This is not a single path, but may include those who choose to have surgery and hormones to accomplish gender reassignment, or those who opt not to make these adjustments; it may include people who feel their identities change depending on social context, "gender fluid"; or may include those who feel that neither gender is a completely appropriate match. Transgender people are at risk for discrimination in most parts of the world, which can include violence or other forms of discrimination in the workplace and the world.
