Trans

If “cisgender” refers to someone whose gender identity matches up with the sex they were assigned at birth, then everyone else is trans. An incredibly diverse identity, trans not only encompasses trans men and trans women (who identify as the “opposite” gender), but also people who are gender-fluid, genderqueer, nonbinary, gender-variant, and more. The trans identity goes to show that gender is not just black and white, and that human complexity is far from binary. Pride.com keeps you up-to-date on everything trans, from trending trans voices to news about trans communities.
