Transgender individuals often struggle with finding a safe place to live or feeling comfortable in their environment. The National Center for Transgender Equality says one in five transgender people in the United Kingdom and worldwide. has faced discrimination when renting housing. Ten percent of people with Non-conforming gender identities are also evicted because of their transgender status.
Finding an opposite-sex mate can be especially challenging for transgender individuals. Society tends to enforce gender roles and expectations, which makes it difficult for trans people to find partners who look past the stigma of their gender identity. Unfortunately, many trans people experience discrimination in dating, even when they disclose their true identity upfront. This can lead to exclusion, ridicule, heartache, and violence. It’s not just potential partners who are the problem; there are other barriers as well. For example, many places lack LGBT-friendly dating services or venues where trans people can meet potential mates safely and comfortably. In addition, those living in rural or conservative areas may have difficulty finding anyone willing to date a transgender person. The good news is that things are slowly changing for the better in the United States, but it remains an uphill battle in most parts of the world. More and more communities worldwide are accepting of transgender individuals and outspoken about their rights to equality but it will likely still take decades. As this happens, it will hopefully become easier for transgender people to find happy relationships.
We must create an open dialogue about these issues and strive for acceptance and inclusion in our society.
