Gender identity refers to an individual’s experience or identity in relation to gender. Transgender, transsexual, and gender variant individuals (often considered under the umbrella term of transgender or trans*) have gender identities that are not congruent with the gender assigned to them at birth. Trans* identity and experiences are framed with regard to medical perspectives, social and legal perspectives, and community perspectives.
