Abstract

The problem of who a person really is, in terms of gender in a society, dominated by only two sexes, is something which is there since time immemorial. It is good to see that people have started talking about it pragmatically but it’s a fact that they still live in an inadequate legal framework throughout the world. Some of them live in a society which tries to acknowledge the difficulties that they face and tries to provide them a route way through the bulk of the population. Others hardly even acknowledge their being. They are ‘not’ simply within a world that only permits two sexes, only sees gender roles, identity or expression of two types thus making them fall outside the societal ‘norms’ and questioning their humanity, therefore the oppression and agitation of the transgender people are legitimised.
