{{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Books and articles written about [[transgender]] people or [[culture]] are often outdated by the time they are published, if not already outdated at the time of composition, due to inappropriate and/or outdated questions or premises.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.
