Abstract:

The constitution of India provides for reservation, which is a form of positive discrimination, created to promote equality among marginalized sections so as to protect them from social and historical injustice. It can be divided into two parts: vertical and horizontal. The Transgender persons are demanding horizontal reservation. The demand has to do with the need for mandatory provisions for a community that has been historically marginalised in society and recognising the different aspects making up their social identity. The Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2019 could not do

Abstract:

The presence of transgender groups in India holds considerable cultural and historical significance. Despite their longstanding presence in Indian society, comprehensive data on their socio-economic status remains scant, with the 2011 Indian Census marking a notable first step in enumerating the transgender population. This community grapples with multifaceted challenges, including familial rejection, limited educational and employment opportunities, and widespread discrimination. The prevailing social stigma and lack of acceptance often lead to exclusion from mainstream society, perpetuating

Abstract:

There are third gender people in the binary gender world known as transgender. The term transgender can refer to a range of people including transsexual people, transvestites, cross-dressers. But most transgender people have an aversion the term transsexual because which emphasizes sex. This binary sexual worldview is understood in India where subgroups exist such as hijras, described as <em>tritika laingik</em> (third sex). Some of the Buddhist and Jain chronicles of ancient India describe numerous male non-heteronormative genders such as <em>napunsaka</em>, <em>kliba</em>, <em>pandak</em>a a

A nursing perspective following McIntyre and McDonald’s framework was used to unpack the complex issue of challenges faced by transgender people in the Canadian healthcare system, considering historical, ethical, legal, social, cultural, political, and economic perspectives. Transgender people have unique healthcare needs which are often misunderstood or unaddressed by healthcare professionals, leading to poorer outcomes and inequities. Issues concerning transgender people are becoming a focus and a higher priority for society. This literature review reveals the complexity of this issue as the

Abstract:

Our civilization is profoundly influenced by gender and sex differences. In every aspect of our culture, people are classified as only ‘male and female’. However, gender is not only limited to males and females. Gender diversity exists in our society in the form of the LGBTQIA (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, and Asexual) community. The Transgender community is the gender variant community that is neglected and criticized just because they are not adequate in the boxes of males and females. Transgender people have been stigmatized and marginalized to a great extent. Despi

Abstract:

Abstract This article seeks to start a discussion that may help us understand why the category “transgender,” created to include all trans* experiences, has excluded some. If “transgender” cannot fully include all trans* people, can it still be a useful category to adequately capture and analyze the lived experience of historical actors? It is in tracing back the genealogy of transgender, in the search for a name that could encompass the multiple and sometimes contradictory relationships between one's body and its social recognition, that we may attempt to discover why transgender has eclipsed

Abstract:

While individuals have demonstrated gender diversity throughout history, the use of medication and/or surgery to bring a person’s physical sex characteristics into alignment with their gender identity is relatively recent, with origins in the first half of the 20th century. Adolescent gender-affirming care, however, did not emerge until the late 20th century and has been built upon pioneering work from the Netherlands, first published in 1998. Since that time, evolving protocols for gender-diverse adolescents have been incorporated into clinical practice guidelines and standards of care publis

With the social, religious, and political stigmas attached to alternative lifestyles throughout history, most homosexuals, bisexuals, and transgender people lived covertly for much of, if not all of, their lives. Likewise, the narrative of our country excludes the contributions, struggles, and historical achievements of this group. This revealing, chronologically arranged reference w

This chapter focuses on rehabilitation politics in relation to the poem called Piers Plowman. It considers Piers Plowman's discussion of debilitated bodies and maimed limbs to critique bodily integration into a social and salvific community. In terms of Piers Plowman, transgender and disability studies in conversation with medieval legal theory and literature show how bodily mutilation and alteration are both created and repudiated by institutional powers. The chapter notes how misshapen bodies regarded in the poem are bodies that do not conform to the shape of society. Moreover, Piers Plowman

This chapter begins by discussing how feminist IPV theory inspired how IPV shelters respond to abuse, and how this ultimately shaped how they (and society as a whole) viewed IPV.

Even since I grew up and entered the New Zealand schooling system, we only learnt about a social system including 'Janet' and 'John' - female and male. As far as the curriculum went, nothing else existed. Though the education system now includes 'rainbow education' under ‘health’ (sometimes tied into the physical education part of the curriculum), it does not extend beyond that. It continues to enforce intersex as a pathology, an anomaly. Outside of this very small component, intersex does not exist. The Western education system has excluded intersex and transgender existence and belong in soc
