List of transgender-related topics 592058 224520701 2008-07-09T06:07:09Z 124.176.36.161 Removed link to deleted article {{Transgender}} '''[[Transgender]]''' is a complex topic, where consensual and precise definitions have not yet been reached. Usually, the only way to find out how exactly [[person|people]] identify themselves is to ask them, and sometimes, [[transgender]] people either cannot or will not define themselves any more specifically than ''[[transgender]]'', ''[[queer]]'', or ''[[genderqueer]]''. Books and articles written about [[transgender]] people or [[culture]] are often outdated by the time they are published, if not already outdated at the time of composition, due to inappropriate and/or outdated questions or premises. Not only [[psychology]] and [[medicine]], but also [[social science]]s deal with [[transgender]] people, and each starts from a very different point of view, offers very different perspectives, and uses a different nomenclature. The difference is mirrored by the attitude of [[transgender]] people towards [[transgender]] issues, as can be seen in the articles listed below. == People and behaviour == * [[Transgender]] ** [[Transman]] ** [[Transwoman]] ** [[List of transgendered people]] ** [[Transgender musicians]] ** [[Transgender youth]] * [[Transsexual]] * [[Cross-dressing]] ** [[En femme]] * [[Transvestism]] * [[Drag (clothing)|Drag]] ** [[Drag queen]] ** [[Drag king]] ** [[Faux queen]] ** [[En travesti]] ** [[pantomime dame]] * [[Androgyny]] * [[Genderqueer]] * [[Genderfuck]] * [[Packing (phallus)]] * [[Shemale]] * [[Third gender]] * [[Transvestic fetishism]] === In non-Western cultures === * [[Two-Spirit]]/"Berdache" (North America) * [[Bacchá]] (Central Asia) * [[Homosexuality in the Philippines|Bakla]] (Philippines) * [[Transgender in China]] * [[Eunuch]] * [[Evening people]] (India) * [[Fakaleiti]] (Tonga) * [[Fa'afafine]] (Polynesia) * [[Galli]] (ancient Rome) * [[Hijra (South Asia)|Hijra]] * [[Transsexuality in Iran]] * [[Kathoey]] (Thailand) * [[Köçek]] (Ottoman Empire) * [[Meti]] (Nepal) * [[Maknyah]],[[Pondan]], [[Bapok]] (Malaysia) * [[Mukhannathun]] (Islam) * [[Transgender people in Singapore]] * [[Sworn virgin]] (Balkan) * [[Takatāpui]] (Maori) * [[Waria]] (Indonesia) * [[Winkte]] (Lakota, North America) * [[Khanith]] (Arabia) == Basic terms == === [[Gender]] === * [[Cisgender]] * [[Gender identity]] ** [[Gender identity disorder]] * [[Gender role]] * [[Pangender]] === [[Sex]] === * [[Sexual characteristics]] ** [[Sex organ]] or ''primary sexual characteristics'' ** [[Secondary sex characteristic]]s * [[Sex-determination system]] === [[Intersex]] === * [[History of intersex surgery]] * [[5-alpha-reductase deficiency]] * [[Congenital adrenal hyperplasia]] * [[Androgen insensitivity syndrome]] * [[Hypospadias]] * [[Klinefelter's syndrome]] * [[Swyer syndrome]] * [[Turner's syndrome]] * [[Hermaphrodite]] * [[Chimerism]] === Other === * [[Gender blind]] * [[Gender queer]] * [[Heteronormativity]] * [[LGBT]] * [[Queer]] * [[Third gender]] * [[Transgenderism]] * [[Transphobia]] == Topics related to transitioning == ===Social=== * [[Transitioning (transgender)|Transitioning]] * [[Passing (gender)]] * [[The closet|The Closet]] * [[Coming out]] * [[Real life experience]] * [[Transsexual sexuality]] ===Relating to medical treatment=== * [[Standards of care for gender identity disorders]] * [[World Professional Association for Transgender Health]] (formerly known as the [[Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association]]) * [[Gender reassignment therapy]] (compare also [[Sex change]]) ** [[Hormone replacement therapy (trans)]] ** [[Sex reassignment surgery]] *** [[Sex reassignment surgery female-to-male]] **** [[Male Chest Reconstruction]] **** [[Phalloplasty]] **** [[Metoidioplasty]] *** [[Sex reassignment surgery male-to-female]] ****[[Breast augmentation]] ****[[Orchiectomy]] ****[[Facial feminization surgery]] ****[[Penile inversion]] ****[[Penectomy]] compare also [[Penis removal]] ****[[Trachea shave]] ****[[Vaginoplasty]] ****[[Voice therapy (trans)|Voice feminization]] ===Legal aspects=== * [[Legal aspects of transsexualism]] ** [[Name change]] ** [[Gender Recognition Act 2004]] United Kingdom ** [[Changing legal gender assignment in Canada]] * [[List of transgender-rights organizations]] == Queer studies == * [[Gender studies]] * [[Gender and sexuality studies]] * [[Anima (Jung)]] * [[Feminism]] * [[Transfeminism]] * [[Queer Theory]] * [[Queer studies]] * [[Autogynephilia]] == Media == * [[Transgender publications]] * [[TG (fanart)]] ===Film and television=== * [[Transgender in film and television]] * [[:Category:Transgender and transsexual actors]] * [[Cross-dressing in film and television]] ===Comedians=== * [[Eddie Izzard]] ===Books=== * ''Lannie!
