Trans-gender means that the gender identity of an individual is different from the physiological gender assigned at birth. Transgender is a general term, including transgender men, transgender women, gender queer and other gender identities.

Transsexuality is a kind of gender identity, not sexual orientation. According to internationally recognized medical standards, transgendering is not a mental illness. Due to the rigid gender cognition in society and the restrictions of current laws and policies, transgender people are generally discriminated against in society at present. In addition, transgender people generally have psychological problems such as anxiety because of self-identity, difficulty in coming out and seeking medical treatment.
