Abstract:
The study attempts to analyze the portrayal of transgender in Bollywood movies and also explored viewpoints of transgender's regarding their representation in selected Bollywood movies. The study focused on them with reference to their problems and challenges. Queer and framing theories provide theoretical implications for the study. The queer theory implies that media content establishes the identities of transgenders through characterization in stereotypical ways, while framing theory infers that media adopt particular frames to enable viewers to think about the transgender's community in a specific manner. Content analysis, survey and intensive interviews were used as research methods. The study concluded that there is a stereotypical representation of transgenders in Bollywood movies. They are portrayed as sex workers, beggars, criminals and dancers. However, the transgender community is looking for a change regarding the stigmatization and misconceptions about them.

Abstract:
Many movies released in Tamil have portrayed transgenders mostly as scenes for ridicule. In the guise of comedy, films have been portraying transgender people with insults, double entendres and sexual scenes. Some movies like Bombay, Thenavattu, Chithiram Pesutadi, and Naan kadavul show transgenders in a dignified manner. From 1977’s Balabhishekam to 2017’s sivappu enakku pidikkum, this review examines the film. Transgender people are those who have been ostracized from public life by their families and the entire society and are forced to live in the public square without any means of living without any means of livelihood, begging and prostitution. Tamil cinema is using the problem of such people and their need only for ridicule. Seeing this, the growing generation grows up with such thoughts and perpetuates its violence against transgenders. The Tamil film world often portrays transgender people as ugly and ridiculous. Tamil movies were also the reason why the transgender community was seen as a laughing stock in the early days.

Abstract:
Background: Transgender population experience violence and discrimination because of their gender identity and their proposed image in society. In Pakistan being a transgender creates a serious challenge and threat to survival due to difference in societal system, culture, and nature. Methods: This qualitative phenomenological study analyses the perceptions of accessing healthcare services of 11 transgender individuals who were recruited through snowball sampling after obtaining their written informed consent. Open ended questions regarding experiences of transgenders accessing healthcare facilities in Karachi were asked. Data was collected till the saturation was achieved. The interviews were transcribed and double checked. Coding of the data was done and subsequently themes were generated. Results: Participants’ mean age was 33 (range 24–65) years. Six themes were identified which revolve around transgenders’ experiences. These were ‘Striving for Life’, ‘Biggest Nightmare! Violence and Harassment’, ‘Shunned by the Society’, ‘Hope for the Better Days’, ‘Transgender as a Pakistani Citizen’ and ‘Attitudes of Healthcare Providers towards transgenders’. Conclusion: There is still a long way to go before accepting transgender individuals as equal members of our society. Despite efforts to reduce discrimination, transgender individuals still face inequalities not only in the society but also in healthcare facilities. This leads to poor access of healthcare facilities. Antidiscrimination policies are needed with increased gender-affirming healthcare access.

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:
An emerging area of law is developing regarding sex/gender identity discrimination, also referred to as transgender discrimination, as distinguished from discrimination based on sexual orientation. A transgendered individual is defined as “a person who has a gender-identity disorder which is a persistent discomfort about one’s assigned sex or a sense of belonging to the other sex.’ While Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 or it amendments do not provide protection from discrimination for individuals based on sexual orientation, transgender, or transvestites, there are a growing number of state, cities, and counties with transgender explicit non-discrimination laws. In addition to the above private employers, colleges and universities and collective bargaining agreements prohibit discrimination against transgendered people. While Title VII does not protect transgendered people, some federal courts have broadly interpreted Title VII’s prohibitation against sex discrimination as including transgendered people on the basis of the concept of “sex stereotyping” as a form of sex discrimination protected by Title VII. Additionally, the state courts of Massachusetts and New Jersey have held that transsexual people are protected under state disability laws. Human Resource Managers need to be sensitive to issues that can arise as a result of an employee making a sex change transition with respect to the following: 1) bathroom and dressing room usage; 2) dress codes; 3) identification and records changes; and (4) health benefits. Additionally, the transgendered employee, supervisory management and coworkers each have responsibilities to see that the transgendered transition is done respecting the rights of all concerned. As to the future, legal status of transgendered employees, transgender advocates should seek to change the existing laws; and if the existing law has sexual orientation protection, these laws should be written in such a way as to expressly include transgendered individuals. Additionally, transgender advocates should seek the voluntary cooperation of employers.

Abstract:
Objective: The objective of the paper is to examine and explain how the constitutionally guaranteed entitlements notably the various facets of right to equality, right to life and preambular assurance of justice: social, economic and political will remain unachievable and meaningless for the transgenders till their economic exclusion and marginalisation continues. The present paper shall examine the important aspects of legal provisions and economic policy which can ensure that the constitutional mandates enshrined under Articles 14, 15, 16 and 21 become a reality for transgender through their economic empowerment. Theoretical Framework: The Constitution of India recognises and rests firmly on the fundamental principles of liberty, equality, fraternity and justice. Transgender people have always been the part of every society, nation and culture since ages but unfortunately their very existence has been negated at every level of society. This marginalised section and highly disadvantaged group has consistently and continuously been subjected to social stigma, discrimination and exclusion from all kinds of socio-economic and political undertakings. The insensitivity and the apathy of the public at large are still the biggest challenges in mainstreaming the transgenders and eliminating all forms of socio-economic exclusion against them. The extreme discrimination and exclusionary practices against the transgender people at every level in the work place, from job rejection to privacy violation and even sexual harassment, disproportionately affects their physical and mental wellbeing. The socio-economic marginalisation and denial of any gainful employment opportunity puts them in depression, pessimism and forces them to engage in unlawful activities and become drug suppliers, sex workers and even low-income entertainers. Method: The present paper focuses on the constitutionally guaranteed entitlements namely “economic justice” and “equality of opportunity” of the transgender people while taking up the issue of their economic exclusion and marginalisation and intends to explore how the economic exclusion has adverse and severe implications on transgender rights. Results and Discussion: The cost of economic exclusion of transgender people in India cannot be undermined. Such discrimination and unaccepting environments are capable of psychologically depressing transgender people and adversely affecting their incentive to get training and education. This turns into a vicious circle that translates into low investment in human capital and suboptimal opportunities for them resulting in lower productivity of overall economy. Conclusion: With very limited employment opportunities, transgender’s education, health and living standard are abysmally low and therefore, in order to achieve the constitutional mandate enshrined under Articles 14, 15, 16 and 21 of the Constitution of India, the objectives of the government should be to allow reasonable participation of most of the transgender population in the national economy.

Abstract:
Transgender people are individuals of any age or sex whose appearance, personal characteristics, or behaviours differ from stereotypes about how men and women are supposed’ to be. They have existed in every culture, race, and class since the story of human life has been recorded. Condition of transgender is very pitiable in our society and they are underprivileged from their basic rights and are still not accepted by Indian society. Many transgenders suffer from mental health problems like depression and suicidal tendencies. In spite of being into existence for so long, the transgender community has never been able to become a part of mainstream society. They are often pushed to the periphery as a social outcaste and many may end up begging and dancing. This is by all means human trafficking. Sometimes running out of all options to feed themselves, they even engage themselves as sex workers for survival. This paper attempts to analyze the legal protection of transgenders, the judicial approach in transgender issues and also the policy of the Government of Kerala for transgenders.

The purpose of this research was to gain a better understanding of transgender people and allow participants to have a voice in describing the experience of those in the transgender community. This study was conducted utilizing qualitative analysis through individual interviews with six participants. One of the major key findings of this study was the prevalence of depression among all participants. Another key finding of this study found safety among peers to be an issue for those transitioning from male to female. From the findings, it is imperative for social work practitioners to understand this marginalized community and be sensitive to the issues they face, such as: higher rates of mortality, suicide, substance abuse, and mental health issues.

Abstract:
Sociology
Ph.D.
Transgender lives and identities have gained considerable popular notoriety in the past decades. As part of this wider visibility, dominant narratives regarding the “transgender experience” have surfaced in both the community itself and the wider public. Perhaps the most prominent of these narratives define transgender people as those living in the “wrong body” for their true gender identity. While a popular and powerful story, the wrong body narrative has been criticized as limited, not representing the experience of all transgender people, and valorized as the only legitimate identifier of transgender status. The dominance of this narrative has been challenged through the proliferation of alternate narratives of transgender identity, largely through transgender people telling their own stories, which has the potential to complicate and expand the social understanding of what it means to be transgender for both trans- and cisgender communities. I focus on transgender literature as a point of entrance into the changing narratives of transgender identity and experience. This work addresses two main questions: What are the stories being told by trans lit? and What are the stories being told about trans literature? What follows is a series of separate, yet linked chapters exploring the contours of transgender literature, largely through the context of the Lambda Literary Awards over the past twenty years. Chapter 2 explores the changing definitions of transgender literature in popular discourse over the last two decades. Drawing on a data set of 51 articles, interviews, book reviews, and blog posts published from 1997-2017, I present a framework for defining and categorizing transgender literature. This framework lays out the different possibilities of what transgender literature might be using the three variables of content, authorship, audience, as well as the likelihood of each iteration being included in the definition of transgender literature as understood in the popular conversation. My findings in this chapter suggest a changing definition of transgender literature from “telling transgender/transition stories” to a focus on “transgender people telling stories.” Chapter 3 moves from conversations defining trans literature to an exploration of how texts within transgender literature have changed over time. Using the finalist and winners in the Lambda Literary Award transgender categories, I constructed a sample of transgender literature covering the past two decades, from 1997-2016. Using digital textual analysis methods, I identify various “demographic” trends in transgender literature since 1997, which mirror the trend identified in chapter 3, a shift from “telling transgender stories” focused largely on identity and transition processes to “transgender people telling stories” which rely much less on transition and identity as central themes. Chapter 4 attempts to contextualize these shifts identified in chapters 2 and 3 by situating trans literature in a broader socio-historical context. I frame transgender literature as an intellectual movement situated in an intellectual opportunity structure that includes the publishing industry, LGBT social activism and organizations, and the Lambda Literary Awards themselves. Lambda Literary functions here as a primary gatekeeper for understanding transgender literature in a broader intellectual community around LGBT cultural production, which transitions us to thinking more critically about the Lambda Literary Awards in chapter 5. Chapter 5 introduces us more fully to the Lambda Literary Awards, the largest LGBT book awards in North America, and positions them as a claim for LGBT cultural citizenship in the United States. Using archival documents from the Lambda Literary Foundation, as well as published statements and articles about the Lambda Literary Awards, I explore three conflicts and controversies within the LGBT community through the localized claims for cultural citizenship made on the Lammys. Finally, I provide a brief conclusion, which recaps the main findings of each chapter, sketches my tentative hopes for the future of transgender literature, and outlines my recommendations for future research in this area.

Abstract:
This thesis contains an analysis of transgender characters in games. The method for selecting the characters was based on the importance of the character in the game with the requirement that the game must have sold at least half a million units. The goal was to analyse well-known characters in gaming history to get an overview of how the game industry has represented transgender in games. Out of 102 characters only six of them met the requirements and have been analysed with the use of queer theory. Gender and how the characters break the norms of what is feminine and what is masculine is in focus. In the analysis, the characters are examined through their mannerism, design, personality and dialogue. The analysis is then summarized into identifiable patterns. The result of this thesis is a better understanding of how transgender characters are portrayed in the game industry.

Abstract:
Il presente lavoro di tesi ha lo scopo di comprendere come l'ambiente sociale e le interazioni interpersonali influenzino la salute mentale e il benessere degli individui gender-variant, affrontando alcune delle questioni rilevanti nel campo dal punto di vista della psicologia sociale e clinica. I primi tre studi presentati nella tesi adottano la prospettiva della psicologia sociale per studiare le esperienze di discriminazione affrontate dagli individui transgender in contesti di salute mentale. Esamineremo il problema da due diversi punti di vista: quello degli psicoterapeuti e quello dei clienti transgender che si sono avvicinati ai servizi di salute mentale. Il primo studio mira a studiare il ruolo del pregiudizio anti-transgender nella valutazione psicologica dei pazienti transgender (vs. cisgender) in un campione di campione di psicoterapeute esperte. Il secondo studio è volto a indagare un campione di psicoterapeuti sia microaggressivo nei confronti di clienti lesbiche o transgender (rispetto a una cliente eterosessuale cisgender). Il terzo studio assume la prospettiva delle persone transgender che accedono ai contesti di salute mentale. Al fine di fornire una maggiore comprensione delle esperienze delle persone transgender che accedono a un servizio di psicoterapia, lo studio si propone di indagare le loro esperienze positive di microaffermazione dell’identità all'interno di una relazione terapeutica. Gli ultimi due studi saranno focalizzati sulle conseguenze del minority stress per la salute mentale e il benessere degli individui transgender. Il quarto studio è intrinsecamente clinico e si focalizzerà sull'indagine della personalità di uomini e donne transgender medicalizzati, valutando sia i domini di personalità dimensionali proposti dal Modello Alternativo di Disturbi della personalità sia le diagnosi categoriche del Disturbo di personalità DSM-IV . Il quinto studio esaminerà gli effetti delle norme sociali di genere in un diverso dominio psicologico, cioè la sessualità. In particolare, lo studio si concentrerà sull'immaginario e sulla fantasia sessuale, che sono aspetti chiave della sessualità umana in quanto associati all'eccitazione e alla risposta sessuale.
The present work is aimed at understanding how social environment and interpersonal interactions influence the mental health and well-being of gender-diverse individuals, approaching some of the relevant issues in the field from the perspective of both social and clinical psychology. The first three studies presented in the thesis adopt the perspective of social psychology to investigate the experiences of discrimination faced by transgender individuals in mental health contexts. We will look at the problem from two different viewpoint: the one of psychotherapists and the one of transgender clients that approached mental health services. The first study aims at investigating the role of anti-transgender bias in the psychological assessment of transgender (vs. cisgender) patients in a sample of female sample of licensed psychotherapists. The second study aims at investigating whether microaggressions are perpetrated by psychotherapists when confronted to lesbian or transgender fictitious clients (vs. cisgender heterosexual). The third study assumes the perspective of transgender people accessing mental health contexts. In order to provide an understanding of transgender peoples’ help-seeking experiences, the study aimed to investigate their positive experiences of identity microaffirmations within a therapeutic relationship. The last two studies will be focused on the consequences of minority stress for the mental health and well-being of transgender individuals. The fourth study is inherently clinical and will be focused on the investigation of personality patterns of medicalized transgender men and women, by evaluating both the dimensional personality domains proposed by the Alternative Model of Personality Disorders and the categorical DSM-IV personality disorder (PD) diagnoses. The fifth study will look at the effects of societal gender norms in a different psychological domain, that is sexuality. In particular, the study will focus on sexual

Abstract:
This thesis examines domestic violence in the transgender community in Queensland, Australia. Interviews with eight transgender people and five transgender-friendly service providers investigated: transgender people's experiences of domestic violence; the unique issues faced by transgender people; and challenges and barriers for transgender people accessing support services. Utilising the continuum of violence, this thesis finds that domestic violence in the transgender community is an extension of the structural inequality and violence that transgender people experience in their everyday lives. These experiences inform and influence recognition of and help-seeking for domestic violence.

Abstract:
Transgenders are those whose sex assigned to them at birth i.e., male or female, does not conform with their current perceived gender. Since transgenders are considered by the traditional binary male or female society as deviating from the established gender norms, they often face humiliation, discrimination or social exclusion. This paper examined the approaches made by the authorities of Malaysia and England when dealing with transgender issues. The authors employed a doctrinal research method for this paper. The authors collected data from relevant legislation, case law, textbooks, journal articles, statistical reports, press reports, and reliable websites. In addition, this paper highlighted the current laws that are in place to deal with transgender rights in both jurisdictions. This paper serves as a good source of reference to legislators, lawyers, academics, students, and the public at large and it creates an awareness pertaining transgender rights in the jurisdictions of Malaysia and England.

Abstract:
Representation of marginalized groups in the media is significant for its understanding by and acceptance in the society. Particularly, the transgender community has long been neglected in the media, with most portrayals being problematic and negative (McInroy and Craig, 2015). The recent inclusion of these communities in the Boys Love (BL) series afforded a transwoman character actress, Jennie Panhan, a transwoman role, erasing the misconception that transgenderhood is pretention, as Mocarski, et al. (2019) contend. With scant attention paid to transgender representation in media, this study aims to investigate the identity construction of a transwoman in the BL series, 3Will Be Free, through a linguistic landscape study of language and sexuality in films (Hiramoto and Vitorio 2019). Specifically, the study employs a social semiotics approach, including one on language (Zimman 2019), to examine transgender identity. Findings reveal that the transwoman portrayal was realistic, intersectional, and nuanced. The portrayal of the genital reconstruction surgery assists transgender individuals to use her as a model (Mocarski et al. 2019). The makeup, accessories, dress, and hairstyle were emblematic of the efforts toward transnormativity. Furthermore, her actions challenge cisnormativity, gender roles and expectations, and capitalism. Moreover, her language constructed her identity, and other people’s language was also employed to affirm her transwomanness. Finally, the portrayal of her relationship with people who accept her destabilize the notion that LBTQI+ people cannot be part of their own family, as she developed a domestic and familial relationship with her boyfriend. The intersectional portrayal promotes transnormativity, strengthening transgender people’s acceptance in society. Although commercial and female-oriented, BL could be reappropriated to raise awareness on LGBT issues and further their causes.

Abstract:
Among other minority groups, the trans community is systematically repressed by a hegemonic heteronormativity. In the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching area, the perspective of this collective is equally absent. This study aims at gaining insight from a transgender student on his impact and perception within the EFL classroom to make secondary-school EFL contexts more inclusive regarding transgender. An exploratory case study constituted the basis of this article via an open interview with a transgender student. By exposing him to input stereotyping gender and marginalizing the trans community, their perception of the danger of the LGBTQIA+ community beyond the classroom was elicited. Different measures were discussed as potential improvements whose implementation could ensure safer environments and a more inclusive teaching experience. Further research could obtain insight beyond the trans community to assess the awareness and compromise towards the collective from individuals who are not part of it.

Abstract:
This report sheds light on challenges faced by Transgender persons in Indian prisons. The report analyses the international and legal frameworks in the country which provide the foundation for policy formulations with regard to confinement of LGBT+ persons, with particular reference to the Transgender community. This report also documents the responses received to right to information requests filed to prison headquarters across the country, which in addition to providing the number of Transgender prisoners in Indian prisons between 1st May 2018 to 30th April 2019, also provides relevant information on compliance within prisons with existing legal frameworks relevant to protecting the rights of Transgender persons in prisons, especially in terms of recognition of a third gender, allocation of wards, search procedures, efforts towards capacity building of prison administrators etc. The finalisation of this report has involved an intense consultative process with individuals and experts, including representatives from the community, community-based organisations as well as researcher and academicians working on this issue. This report aims to enhance the understanding of these issues among stakeholders such as prison administrators, judicial officers, lawyers, legal service providers as well as other non-state actors. It is aimed at better informed policy making, and ensuring that decisions made with respect to LGBTI+ persons in prisons recognize and are sensitive of their rights and special needs.

Abstract:
This project undertakes a large-scale quantitative and qualitative investigation into the lived experiences of transgender, gender non-conforming and gender non-binary persons in the Indian science ecosystem. Towards this goal, the study uses four key research methods: (a) applications under the Right to Information Act, 2005 to investigate the status of implementation of the legislative, judicial and policy documents that govern the access of transgender, gender non-conforming and gender non-binary persons to the Indian science ecosystem; (b) a policyscape approach to policy analysis to understand the effectiveness of the legislative, judicial and policy interventions that govern the access of transgender, gender non-conforming and gender non-binary persons to the Indian science ecosystem; (c) qualitative interviews and focus group discussions to understand the ways in which transgender, gender non-conforming and gender non-binary persons negotiate the Indian science ecosystem; and (d) a comparative historiography to understand and explicate the possibilities of political solidarity between different marginalised groups in the context of higher education in science in India, including caste-, gender- and disability-marginalised groups.

Abstract:
CLPR’s ” Making Rights Real” policy brief recognises that reservations are critical in addressing the livelihood concerns of the transgender and intersex community and proposes the manner of implementation of such reservations. In suggesting a framework for providing reservations, the policy brief stays true to the principle of self-identification of gender identity, traces the legal and constitutional framework on reservations in India, and considers legislative, executive, and judicial efforts at providing reservations of transgender and intersex persons so far.

Full text
Abstract:
This report details the findings of an Ontario-wide survey of 1194 school educators which is part of a larger study funded by funded by the Social Sciences Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). The survey was developed in consultation with trans educators, school board officials, and community members and included a mix of qualitative and quantitative questions. The report is structured according to educators’ responses to questions about trans-inclusive policies, self-rated knowledge, and understanding of trans inclusion and gender diversity, training received, use of resources and the barriers to fostering gender diversity in schools. Educators’ recommendations and advice on improving education about trans inclusivity in schools are also reported. Key findings revealed that there continue to be systemic and structural impediments to supporting trans inclusion and gender diversity in schools, in terms of both the failure to enact policy and to provide adequate support, education, and resourcing for educators. Recommendations are outlined which relate to the need for further development of policies that identify the allocation of resources for both professional development and curriculum development as central to the necessary provision of support for trans students and creating gender-affirming schools. The report also stipulates the necessity for sustained accountability measures to be established by governing bodies, such as the Ontario Ministry of Education, for supporting gender diversity and trans inclusion with the explicit objective of supporting school boards fiscally in the provision of professional development and development of resources. Teacher Education faculties also need to be committed to ensuring that teacher candidates are provided with the knowledge and understanding of trans inclusion and what trans affirmative education entails.
