How to Better Protect Transgender in China
Everyone has a different way of comprehending or relating to various gender identities. How people discuss and describe gender characteristics are essential, and they continue to change. Eventually, society understands that numerous individuals have intersecting personalities. According to Simmons and White (2014), several people reclaim or claim new labels or terminologies with different meanings. Hence, individuals must respect other people’s identities and their changing nature to bind societies. Simmons and White assert that “the best way to make change is to assume less and ask more” (22). Sometimes, people disagree on definitions and terminologies such as transgender. These individuals describe and redefine themselves and continue to argue within their groups.

The discussions in parliament and court cases demonstrate that this population’s legibility depends on encouraging doctors’ ambitions towards clear biology through sex reassignment surgeries. It is also clear that governments continue to consider transgender people in their political calculations, which makes these individuals vulnerable to the nation’s disciplinary powers just like any other person. However, to protect transgender individuals from these vulnerabilities, China’s parliamentarians should introduce the “Rights of Transgender Persons Bill” as a private member’s bill for discussion. The debate might result in transgender people disassociating themselves from nationalization, better protecting them.
Unfortunately, China’s judicial laws may not recognize transgender identities, which is dangerous because it might make this group not legally exist. Transgender individuals might not express their gender identity to other people the same way they do when they are alone. Many of these individuals wish to have permanent social transitions, althou...
