We are in every discipline. This is especially true when some sexual identities are feared, misunderstood, disrespected, and are stigmatized within a society. Queers are as varied as heterosexuals. A 'Transgendered' person is someone whose gender identity differs from conventional expectations of masculinity or femininity. Generally, their gender identity or manner of presentation differs from their physical sex assigned at birth.
Most transgendered persons identify themselves as heterosexual.
Their intrinsic difference is their gender identity, not their sexual orientation - these are two different things altogether. However, transgendered people are perceived by most people as homosexual and thus are discriminated against in similar ways.
