Sobre aquest llibre

Over the past few years, the idea of transgender has evolved and entered the academic sphere. The society started to open up to queer identities and start accepting people for who they are. When these subjects were a part of the curriculum, we found children who were eager to learn more. Since each book about transgender concentrated on a different issue, there was no compact book that included the majority of the information on transgender. The main worries and problems of transgender people are attempted to be condensed in an introduction to queer studies. It gives a quick overview of transgender issues, gender identity, and sexual orientation. It covers transgender people's rights in India. It provides enough information on each bill and act to give the reader a solid starting point for future study. The main legal issues, particularly those relating to inheritance laws, are covered in the following section. The book raises significant concerns about anti-LGBTQ countries as well as transgender rights around the world. The book's conclusion introduces readers to stories and mythological figures associated with transgender people. It also includes details on ceremonies and the transgender community. A primer on queer studies is intended to provide students with the fundamentals of transgender people.
