Abstract:

In human society, it is natural to see two genders, male and female. It is somewhat surprising that the work of transgender people, who can be called the third gender, is somewhat surprising. In the Mahabharatam, the story of the birth of a transsexual is extended. In nature's creation, we find these people incarnated as transsexuals in practical life. The records of transgenders can be found in abundance in Sangam literary grammar. Transgender people, who have been marginalized in society, are denied the right to participate in public. Transgenders living in small groups in the human community have been ridiculed as "identityless." This is the situation today. In the Sangam literary records, their identity has been recognized socially. It can be said that their contribution to the level of education is low. Transgenders, who are marginalized people, are more likely to be rejected at all levels. Since they lacked the right to education, there was no context in grammatical and literary fiction in which the pedis (hermaphrodites), the transgenders, could register their right to life. No one comes forward to help in public, fearing that if they raise their voice for them, they will be respected as untouchables in society. This denial is also a contemporary phenomenon. As a result, it is necessary to compile how third-gender identities are recorded in the literary field. Transgenders, also known as hermaphrodites, exist as records in literary life. The location of such people's lives is clearly visible in grammatical and literary fiction.

Abstract:

This article identifies the dominant modes of discourse and critiques the problematic tropes and conventions at work in a selection of contemporary young adult fiction novels about young people with queer gender identities. Beginning with the role of young adult fiction, the importance of resisting models of binary gender, the trope of coming out and the convention of the hero’s journey, this article then analyses transphobic tropes: how the narrative lens of pathos functions in these texts to reduce the queer to a state of victimization, invisibility, mental illness, otherness, isolation and not belonging. This article uses the phrase ‘queer genders’ and the term ‘trans*’ to encompass transgender, non-binary, genderqueer, genderfluid and other gender non-conforming identities. ‘Trans’ without the asterisk is the shortened form of ‘transgender’.

Abstract:

Several identity-verifying procedures implemented in the wake of September 11, 2001, created conflicts for transgender people in the US who had different sex designations marked on various forms of identification. Trans studies scholars note that these conflicts highlight the assumption that sex is a stable marker of identity and expose that assumption as a fiction. The use of body scanners in airport security illuminates a similar reliance on binary sex categories. However, identity documentation policies and biometrics in airport security operate through different logics about how to solve the problem of affixing individual identities to changing bodies. The experiences of trans people with both identity documentation and airport security body scanners demonstrate that the requirements for passing as a proper citizen differ depending on the context: identity document policies prioritize medical alteration of the body while biometrics register medical alteration of the body as a potential threat to security.

Abstract:

The image of trans monstrosity has been firmly anchored in mainstream North American popular culture, most notably through films such as Psycho, Dressed to Kill, and The Silence of the Lambs. This cultural vilification has had catastrophic effects on trans communities, stoking violence especially against trans-feminine people, promoting discrimination, and severely affecting trans people’s self-images. By analysing two contemporary short stories, Julian K. Jarboe’s I Am A Beautiful Bug! and A.K. Blue’s God Empress Susanna, this paper examines different approaches to the monster trope from trans perspectives and investigates the entanglements between trans identity, monstrosity, and disability.

Abstract:

The last twenty years have seen a proliferation of books for young people dealing with trans experience and issues. This article charts the emergence of transgender fiction for children and young adults, and its development during that period. It will address several questions arising from this phenomenon. How does the representation of trans experience differ when presented for a child readership rather than adults, and for younger children rather than adolescents? How are the representations of gender identity, gender expression and sexuality affected by considerations of audience? What are the tropes (or clichés) of trans fiction, and how have they changed? Whose points of view do the stories represent? Does it matter whether their authors are themselves trans? Is it more possible today than twenty years ago to assume some knowledge in child readers, or must every story “start from scratch”? There is no single answer to any of these questions, but the article will note some of the trends discernible over a range of texts published in English since the start of the century, and describe some of the challenges in writing texts about trans experience in the future.

Abstract:

Recent decades have witnessed an increase in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTQI) visibility in the British media. Increased representation has not been equally distributed, however, as bisexuality remains an obscured sexual identity in discourses of sexuality. Through the use of diachronic corpus-based critical discourse analysis, this study seeks to uncover how bisexual people have been represented in the British press between 1957 and 2017. By specifically focusing on the discursive construction of bisexuality in The Times, the results reveal how bisexual people are represented as existing primarily in discourses of the past or in fiction. The Times corpus also reveals significant variation in the lexical meaning of bisexual throughout the 60 years in question. These findings contribute to contemporary theories of bisexual erasure which posit that bisexual people are denied the same ontological status as monosexual identities, that is, homosexuality and heterosexuality.

Abstract:

Embedded within the biographies of some transgender people are narratives elements more frequently found in culturally-specific legends settings and the interplay of mythological figures. Individuals who specifically identify as transsexuals (unlike other, non-binary or gender-queer transgender people) sometimes report the wish, the dream, and/or the desire to understand or alleviate their experienced gender incongruence in a surprisingly creative way: through some type of magical transformation. Calling upon recently collected interviews, this study examines those narratives and their use of such elements, noting their reliance on binary gender formations. Through philosophical and cultural-anthropological analyses, we suggest that these fields grant powerful and imaginative personal allowances, opportunities and perceptions to transsexual identifying transgender individuals – magical transformations and justified transpositions to alleviate dysphoria, a surrender of personal responsibility to unseen universal forces, and especially an inherent wisdom gifted during transitional liminality – that neither scientific nor academic evaluations of gender transition can. While these creative allowances are fictive, fantastical, and temporary, they nevertheless articulate a need if not an imperative for understanding, expression and ultimately action on behalf of the transitioning individual.

Abstract:

Breaking the Silence. Changes in the Ways of Presenting LGBT+ Issues in Contemporary Slovak Prose In Slovakia after the Velvet Revolution of 1989 groups previously marginalized and discriminated against in the communism era, including the LGBT+ community, began activities aimed at obtaining full civil rights and developing forms of cultural representation. Gradually, the issues of non-heteronormativity began to appear in various areas of culture. As regards prose texts, which are the basis for the reflections presented in this paper, non-heteronormativity was initially portrayed in a stigmatizing, stereotype-based manner. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the dominant approach has been to expose the problem of LGBT+ people living in the closet, hiding their identity due to the homophobia in the society; the sphere of intimacy is considered as the only one that allows a sense of security and the free expression of affection and desire. In more recent works, examples of characters who have come out of the closet and have no problems with functioning openly in the family and social contexts begin to appear. The specificity of Slovak fiction featuring the themes of non-heteronormativity lies mainly in the lack of works of a clearly emancipatory nature, the domination of stories focused on intimate relations between women, and only occasionally introducing gay or transgender themes.

Abstract:

Abstract In Terrorist Assemblages, Jasbir Puar introduces the concept of homonationalism as an analytic for a sociohistorical moment of seeming contradictions in gay politics. Since the book's first edition in 2007, several scholars have theorized the relation between homonationalism and transgender politics by examining nonfictional texts from 2007 onward. That scholarship most often explores the controversy surrounding US transparency activist Chelsea Manning's 2010 leaks of government information and subsequent “coming out” as transgender. However, interactions among homonationalism, transgender politics, and fictional texts remain undertheorized. Analyzing those interactions with a focus on American exceptionalism and science fiction television, this article shows that transnormative nationalism began territorializing through transtextuality as early as 2000. This argument not only contributes a more comprehensive explanation of the relation between homonationalism and transgender politics but also reveals the role of science fiction television in connecting the two. The argument's supporting evidence comprises a science fiction television figure termed the post-post-gender cyborg woman. This figure is incarnated in Max, a transgenic woman in Dark Angel (Fox, 2000–2002), and Sharon, a female humanoid Cylon (or robot) in Battlestar Galactica (Sky1 and Sci Fi Channel, 2004–2009). The method is a multiperspectival cultural studies approach, which holistically interprets a text's cultural meanings through analyzing not only the text but also its transtextually related texts, production, and reception. The data include television episodes, webisodes, DVD special features, tie-in novels, published interviews, professional criticism, fan fiction, and fan video. The analysis concludes with how transnormative nationalism reterritorialized in the Manning controversy.

Abstract:

With the issuance of Minister of Health Regulation Number 9 of 2020 concerning Guidelines for Large-Scale Social Restrictions in the Context of Accelerating the Handling of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19), the government recommended that all community activities be carried out from home (work from home). The amount of time spent at home causes people to become bored and need entertainment, one of which is by spending time to watch film. One of the shows that is currently booming is Boys' Love which is a fictional media (manga, anime, series) that focuses on homoerotic and homoromantic relationships between men. This article discusses how audiences are attracted to, respond to, and question their sexual orientation. Using qualitative approach, this study combined in-depth interview and observation as data collection methods. his research was conducted online through the brightforwin fanpage community which took place from August 2021 to February 2022. There are eleven informants involved in this study who are the audiences of Boys’ Love. They vary according to age (between 19 and 42 years), sex (eight women and three men), and status (three housewives and eight college students).  The study shows that Boys' Love series became popular because it is not only focused on sexual activity, but also on how to build relationships between characters, to express sexuality, and to deepen relationships between viewers. The public's response to this series was varied, some were suddenly interested and became big fans of the Boys' Love series, some didn’t care, and others clearly reject this series. In regard to the sexual orientation of Boys' Love audience, there are differences between male and female audience. Male audience of Boys' Love series is considered as transgender or gay. For female audiences, there is a difference between married and single women. For married women, their sexual orientation is not questioned because of their marital status, while for single women, their orientation is questioned by others. But, as the fan and viewer of Boys’ Love some single men and women also question their sexual orientation.

K, Iyyappan. "Transgender in Silappathikaram." Indian Journal of Tamil 3, no. 2 (2022): 1–5. http://dx.doi.org/10.54392/ijot2221.

Full text

Abstract:

Silappathikaram is the first Tamil epic. In this epic that is written by Ilangovadikal, there are records of transgender people living on the margins of society. As Tolkappiyar has recorded transgender people as masculinity challenged, Ilangovadikal too referred transgender as masculinity challenged. Silappathikaram talks about ‘Pedik Koothu (folk play)’ which can only be played by transgender people. Madurapathi, the deity of the Pandyas, one of the three crowned Kings, is understood to be in the bisexual transgender form. Silappathikaram beautifully captures the transcendental imagery of transgender people. It also records that transgender people worked as maids in the harem for Venmaal, the wife and queen of Senkuttuvan. Besides, Silappathikaram registers transgender people as trustworthy. Furthermore, worshiping them in the form of deities and through recording their images, it is clear that the society of the day regarded transgender people as equals without distinction.

Abstract:

An attempt has been made to study the experiences of transgender people in the conditions of their living in a critical life situation (transgender transition). The study included conducting and analyzing a semi-structured interview, as well as collecting and analyzing quantitative data using an author’s questionnaire compiled on the basis of content analysis of interview texts. 10 transgender people (average age 21.2 years) took part in the interview, 285 transgender a Author for correspondence. Вестник СПбГУ. Психология. 2023. Т. 13. Вып. 2 227 people (average age 21.21 years) took part in the survey. The analysis of the phenomenology of experiences and subsequent verification by mathematical methods (hierarchical clustering and the Mann — Whitney U criterion for independent samples) made it possible to identify and describe two types of experiences of transgender people: “open to self-search” (81 people) and “avoidant” (204 people). “Open to self-search” transgender people more often gave high marks to positive states and emotions about transgender transition, noted the experience of community with transgender people. In the process of transgender transition, new meanings were produced: cognition, acceptance and self-development; life planning and the importance of building future goals; professional development. Family, partner and friendly support were assessed by them as positive or favorable social factors. “Avoidant” transgender people more often noted negative states and emotions about transgender transition, and avoidance of communication with people. They note the experiences associated with doubts and assessment of the correctness of the transgender transition, with excitement about the reactions of people around them to transgender status, with a feeling of loneliness among cisgender people. The negative attitude of the family, loved ones and others, as well as discrimination in public places were considered as interfering with the transgender transition and life in general. This study serves as an attempt to phenomenologically describe the experiences of transgender people accompanying a transgender transition, as well as to identify differences in them.

Abstract:

Today, psychiatric care for people with transgender people in the Russian Federation is difficult due to non-compliance with ethical principles in the work of the psychiatric service. The article deals with the unresolved ethical conflict regarding gender reassignment procedures between proponents of "not allowed, forbidden" with the attitude of psychiatrists to issue permission for sex reassignment only to "real" transsexuals, and supporters of the opposite liberal attitude towards issuing permission. for gender reassignment procedures for almost all applicants. Our article discusses ethical issues to help transgender people. The ethical principles of autonomy, harmlessness and beneficence in this article are intended to help transgender people. The authors ethically write about adding and not adding a transgender diagnosis to the International Classification of Diseases. This article raises concerns about the benefits and harms, the principle of respect for autonomy and the principle of beneficence, in order to provide good quality ethical care for transgender people. The authors discuss the problem of the ethical attitude of a psychiatrist to the mental health of transgender subjects. The authors discuss the ethical problem of the psychiatrist's attitude to the mental health of transgender subjects, medicalization and medical paternalism with the help of transgender people. This article raises considerations about the ethical role of the psychiatrist in gender reassignment procedures for subjects with varying degrees of mental health. The authors propose an algorithm for providing psychiatric care to persons who have undergone gender reassignment, which includes an in-depth examination by psychiatrists, psychologists, sexologists and a collegial conclusion on the state of mental health of a transgender person in the triad: mentally healthy or "have mental disorders", "borderline" or "mental psychotic disorders".

Abstract:

Transgender people represent a broad spectrum of individuals that transiently or persistently identify with a gender different from the one assigned at birth (APA, 2013). Transgender healthcare issues have become an increased matter of interest over the last years, as shown by the growth of publications on the subject and by the increase of referrals reported worldwide in all age groups. However, transgender people report encountering numerous obstacles in accessing and receiving appropriate health care with professionals being described as not properly trained on specific gender issues. Considering the diversity and complexity of the gender spectrum in the different age groups and in light of the recent changes in the formal psychiatric classification, mental health providers play a critical role in meeting the needs of gender non-conforming children, adolescents and adults, according to individualized paths. This course has the following aims: (1) learn the principles of assessment of gender incongruence in childhood, adolescence and adulthood; (2) address co-occurring psychopathology (if present); (3) identify different treatment paths according to age and individualized psychological and/or medical needs; (4) work in a multidisciplinary team in line with an integrated model.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

Abstract:

Transgender people can engage in a number of procedures to deal with the incongruence between their physical gender and the one with which they identify. One of the experts involved in the process of gender transition is a speech-language pathologist (SLP), whose role is to collaborate with the client on the goal to develop vocal, language and communication behaviors that match the desired gender identity. This case report presents one such collaboration, which included voice and communication therapy for a male-to-female transgender person aimed at the voice feminization.

Abstract:

This article explores two cases at the intersection of emerging studies of transgender experience: heterosexualities and asexualities. Drawing on data from a mixed-methodological survey, we analyze the ways 57 asexual transgender people and 42 heterosexual transgender people occupying varied gender, race, class, age, and religious identities (1) make sense of gender and (2) experience coming out as transgender. Our analyses reveal some ways cisnormativity impacts transgender people across sexual identities, and the theoretical potential of incorporating transgender people into studies focused on asexualities and heterosexualities. In conclusion, we outline implications for understanding (1) transgender experiences with cisnormativity across sexual and other social locations and (2) possibilities for expanding studies of heterosexualities and asexualities beyond cisgender experiences.

Abstract:

The suicide rate for transgender people is among the highest of any group in the United States. Yet, we know little about disadvantages or resources available to transgender people to prevent suicide. The overall purpose of this study is to assess how marital status modifies the risk of suicide among transgender people. We analyzed data from the 2015 U.S. Transgender Survey to predict marital status differences in both suicide ideation and suicide attempt in the past year. The analytic sample for suicide ideation included 17,117 transgender respondents (9,182 transwomen and 7,935 transmen), and the analytic sample for suicide attempt was limited to 8,058 transgender respondents (4,342 transwomen and 3,716 transmen) who reported suicide ideation in the last 12 months. Results from binary logistic regression models suggested that never married and previously married transmen and transwomen, regardless of their partnership status, generally had higher risk of both suicide ideation and attempt than their married transgender counterparts with only one exception: never married transwomen had lower risk of suicide ideation (but not attempt) than their married transwomen counterpart after sociodemographic characteristics were accounted for. These findings draw attention to the heterogeneity of the transgender population, highlighting marital status as a key social factor in stratifying the life experiences of transgender people.

Abstract:

Violence against transgender individuals is pervasive across many sectors, yet discourse on the issue remains limited to a few platforms, with minimal action taken to address it. This inaction contributes significantly to public health problems. Transgender individuals often face myriad forms of violence, including familial ostracization, physical abuse, emotional neglect, school bullying, unemployment, and discrimination in public arenas. Such experiences hinder their social integration and infringe on their personal rights. Research indicates that violence against transgender people has detrimental effects on their mental health, and the rates of reporting such incidents are distressingly low. Factors like stigma, misunderstandings by authorities, fear of transphobic reactions, unequal legal protections, and the risk of unjust arrest discourage seeking help. These challenges increase the vulnerability of transgender people to violence. This review will analyze the existing literature on violence against transgender individuals and explore the societal underpinnings of such violent behaviors.

Abstract:

After the nineties, the theory of postmodernism became hotly talked about in the artistic and literary contexts of Tamil. In the marginal counter-narratives posed by this theory, the marginal concepts provided many new openings. Thus, the views and records of marginalized people who were subjected to neglect and oppression gained a new lease on life. There are also contributions from many authors behind this. In this Su Venugopal is remarkable. In all his stories, humanity is at the core of it. His voice for the marginalized sections of the downtrodden is silently recorded in the stories, with a sharply critical tone towards the prevailing dominant society. Thus, this article examines Su Venugopal's fictions about agricultural labourers, women, the physically challenged, and transgenders living in the marginalized state away from the core. Su Venugopal is a storyteller with a realist background in a straightforward narrative. There are more than five volumes of his short stories and this article is the subject of his research. This article moves on to the hypothesis that Su Venugopal's stories explain marginalized people and their lives from within their own domain. The physical and mental distress and crowded acts of relationships of marginalized people who yearn for support, comfort, and warmth become central to Su Venugopal's stories.

Abstract:

As a sexual minority, China's transgender community is under great pressure in social life, and transgender people tend not to be present in the common media as frequently as their peers in other countries. The progression of society and the development of Internet technology provide the cultural foundation and technical condition for transgender people to enter the public. This paper would discuss how has the image of transgender people changed in China’s common media and analyses the impact of the development of mass media on the transgender community. This study will further explore the history of Chinese transgender community and will further assist in considering the changing attitudes towards transgender people in Chinese society and the increasing acceptance of transgender.

Abstract:

As growing numbers of transgender people — including students, parents, and educators — become visible within schools, so comes with this the requirement that schools ensure their full inclusion. This article suggests that school counsellors and psychologists have an important role to play in supporting transgender people within schools. As an initial scoping of this suggestion, the article reports on findings from two Australian surveys: one focused on cisgender parents of transgender children, and one focused on cisgender school counsellors and psychologists in regard to their capacity for working with transgender people. The findings suggest that while the parent sample had largely negative experiences with school counsellors, the professional sample reported a high level of confidence in working with transgender people, although differences in gender and religiosity impacted upon school counsellors’ and psychologists’ acceptance of transgender people, and clinical knowledge for working with transgender people. The article concludes by advocating for ongoing training for school counsellors and psychologists in regard to working with transgender people, in addition to outlining the role that school counsellors and psychologists can play in facilitating a whole of school approach to transgender issues.

Abstract:

Transgender people suffer from others’ negative attitudes in many situations. The university context is one environment where further progress has to be made to ensure the inclusion of transgender people. In this study, a sample of 376 undergraduate students was collected and their attitudes towards transgender people were analyzed. A comparison was made between number of years in university, and a sample from the general public. In addition, comparisons were made by gender, since the literature shows more negative attitudes toward transgender people in men than in women. The results show relatively positive attitudes toward transgender people among higher education students, but they have little knowledge of transgender identity. In turn, researchers found significant differences between different years in the university and between genders. These results support the need to expand knowledge about transgender people in the university environment.

Abstract:

The increased visibility of transgender people in the past decade has been accompanied by an increase in the level of institutional and general social transphobia in Serbia. The mass media, through which the population of Serbia is mostly informed about transgender people and transgender issues in general, have a significant role in spreading and encouraging transphobia. Texts in print and online media are usually the only source of information about transgender people that reaches the citizens of Serbia. Most of these texts contain offensive, outdated and inadequate terminology. The texts report in a sensationalist manner and do not address transphobia as a serious social problem that transgender people face on a daily basis. In this article, I will deal with the representation of transgender people in Serbian print and online media, as well as the impact of media reporting on the spread of transphobia in Serbia. All texts dealing with the transgender issues and transgender people were collected by searching the digital archive of media texts for 2021 with the help of key words and tags. The collected material is analyzed using the media content analysis method and the critical discourse analysis method. The aim of this research is to determine how print and online media represent transgender people in Serbia and to what extent they influence the creation of prejudices, stereotypes and negative attitudes about transgender people.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Whether transgender people should be able to compete in sport in accordance with their gender identity is a widely contested question within the literature and among sport organisations, fellow competitors and spectators. Owing to concerns surrounding transgender people (especially transgender female individuals) having an athletic advantage, several sport organisations place restrictions on transgender competitors (e.g. must have undergone gender-confirming surgery). In addition, some transgender people who engage in sport, both competitively and for leisure, report discrimination and victimisation. Objective To the authors’ knowledge, there has been no systematic review of the literature pertaining to sport participation or competitive sport policies in transgender people. Therefore, this review aimed to address this gap in the literature. Method Eight research articles and 31 sport policies were reviewed. Results In relation to sport-related physical activity, this review found the lack of inclusive and comfortable environments to be the primary barrier to participation for transgender people. This review also found transgender people had a mostly negative experience in competitive sports because of the restrictions the sport’s policy placed on them. The majority of transgender competitive sport policies that were reviewed were not evidence based. Conclusion Currently, there is no direct or consistent research suggesting transgender female individuals (or male individuals) have an athletic advantage at any stage of their transition (e.g. cross-sex hormones, gender-confirming surgery) and, therefore, competitive sport policies that place restrictions on transgender people need to be considered and potentially revised.

Abstract:

Interviews with 41 nonbinary individuals reveal a considerable amount of ambivalence among nonbinary people regarding transgender identification. There is also disagreement about which model of transgender legitimacy determines group membership: the binary and medicalized model or the umbrella model. Those who do not identify as transgender either do not consider themselves to be “trans enough” to claim group membership alongside trans men and trans women or otherwise consider their gender experience to be qualitatively different from the transgender experience. Meanwhile, those who do identify as transgender credit the umbrella model as authoritative while acknowledging that their claims to group membership are often resisted by those who uphold the binary transgender model. Finally, those who defy an easy yes/no transgender categorization schema qualify their transgender identification with admissions of doubt that they are really “trans enough” to claim the label or through linguistic practices that position themselves as tangentially transgender or as distinctly nonbinary transgender. This range of responses illuminates the diverse gender identities that coexist among nonbinary people that cannot be neatly sorted into a man/woman or cisgender/transgender binary. Research on the sociology of gender must expand beyond both of these binary frameworks to reflect the reality of gender diversity.

Abstract:

This text gives a critical account of various, often conflicting interpretations of slash fiction - stories based on characters from popular TV show, The Star Trek, written (and read) by fans. What makes slash fiction, a subgenre of fan fiction, specific is a homoeroticization of characters that in the original narratives are either explicitly or implicitly heterosexual. Whether such ?homoerotic pairing? has any foundation in the original Star Trek narrative, remains an open question. Answers to this question vary greatly. An affirmative answer, however, begs a further question: whether these narratives are ?homosexual representations? in a strict gay/lesbian sense? The authors propose that slash represents a non-hegemonic narrative which transgresses borders (of the medium, genre, gender, sexuality etc.) set up in the original narrative - queering, reexamining thus both sex and gender.

Abstract:

There is no transgender voice or pro-transgender voice in the ancient Tamil literature. Transgender explanations need to be compiled from what is reported as information in grammatical commentary and literary works. Transgender people have been living in Tamil Nadu since ancient times can be found in Sangam literary works. Records about transgenders have appeared in Tolkappiyam and Nigandus. Tamil epics narrates that it is possible to know the status of transgender people living in harmony with palace life. Devotional literary works refer to gender’s past status as Lord being male, female, and transgender. In Tamil Nadu, transgender people are completely ignored as the emphasis of male chauvinism. In general values about transgender have been recorded in the ancient literary works.

Abstract:

This study discusses how to apply human rights law as a means of social control over gender in Indonesia, how to treat and improve the community for transgender people in Indonesia, the inhibiting factors for implementing protection for transgender people in Indonesia and how to respect the rights of transgender groups. The method used in this scientific article is a normative-empirical legal research method. The normative-empirical legal research method is basically a combination of a normative legal approach or based on statutory regulations with the addition of various empirical elements or seeing every legal event within the scope of the general public. It can be concluded that the normative-empirical legal research method is an approach or implementation of normative law in every aspect of legal events that occur in the community. The aim is to find out the importance of providing protection to transgender people as Indonesian citizens and further about legal protection for transgender people and how it is implemented. From the results of the study, it can be seen that legal protection as an Indonesian citizen from discrimination has indeed been running but has not been maximized. The problem with providing protection to transgender people is that there is still no firm stance from the government in dealing with the issue of protection for transgender people and the absence of legal regulations specifically made for transgender conditions and the attitude of people who are still indifferent to transgender people.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective Hormone therapy in transgender people might be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). We aimed to investigate whether the risk of CVD is increased in transgender people compared with people of the same birth sex. Design and methods PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Google Scholar were searched until July 2022. Studies evaluating cardiovascular events in transgender women or men were included. Primary outcomes were stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and venous thromboembolism (VTE). The risk for transgender women versus cisgender men and for transgender men versus cisgender women was analysed through random-effects meta-analysis. Results Twenty-two studies involving 19 893 transgender women, 14 840 transgender men, 371 547 cisgender men, and 434 700 cisgender women were included. The meta-analysis included 10 studies (79% of transgender women and 76% of transgender men). In transgender women, incidence of stroke was 1.8%, which is 1.3 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0-1.8) times higher than in cisgender men. Incidence of MI was 1.2%, with a pooled relative risk of 1.0 (95% CI, 0.8-1.2). Venous thromboembolism incidence was 1.6%, which is 2.2 (95% CI, 1.1-4.5) times higher. Stroke occurred in 0.8% of transgender men, which is 1.3 (95% CI, 1.0-1.6) times higher compared with cisgender women. Incidence of MI was 0.6%, with a pooled relative risk of 1.7 (95% CI, 0.8-3.6). For VTE, this was 0.7%, being 1.4 (95% CI, 1.0-2.0) times higher. Conclusions Transgender people have a 40% higher risk of CVD compared with cisgender people of the same birth sex. This emphasizes the importance of cardiovascular risk management. Future studies should assess the potential influence of socio-economic and lifestyle factors.
