List of transgender people

From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Jump to: navigation, search

This list consists of well-known people who are transgender in identity. The individual listings note the subject's nationality and main occupation.

In many non-Western and ancient or medieval societies, transgender people are seen as a different gender in itself, and there is a separate category for them, that is different from both 'men' and 'women'. They are often described collectively as 'third genders.' These societies traditionally have separate social spaces for third gender people, which is separate from both men's social spaces and women's social spaces.

Some of the persons listed here crossdressed during wartime for various purposes.

It should also be noted that transgender people are by definition not "transvestites" or "drag performers" because the latter do not live or identify their gender as being different to the gender assigned at birth consistently in their daily lives.
