Transgender Identities: Towards a Social Analysis of Gender Diversity emerges from, and speaks to, recent sociological considerations of ‘transgender.’
The term ‘transgender’ denotes a range of gender experiences,
subjectivities and presentations that fall across, between or beyond stable
categories of ‘man’ and ‘woman.’ ‘Transgender’ includes gender identities
that have, more traditionally, been described as ‘transsexual,’1 and a diversity
of genders that call into question an assumed relationship between gender
identity and presentation and the ‘sexed’ body.
