(T) refers to a person’s internal, deeply felt sense of being male, female, a blend of both, or neither.

Transgender individuals have been the primary architects of much of the language and aesthetics used in LGBTQ+ culture today.

Being transgender means that a person's gender identity does not align with the sex they were assigned at birth. For example, a person who was assigned male at birth may identify as a woman, and a person who was assigned female at birth may identify as a man. Transgender individuals may choose to express their gender identity in various ways, such as through their clothing, hairstyle, and pronouns.

Countries like Argentina, Malta, and Spain have pioneered "self-determination" laws, allowing citizens to change their legal gender marker without requiring psychiatric evaluations or medical interventions.
