In this society where the majority of the people are male or female transgendered people are ignored and their rights are not given any importance. In United States at child birth the surgeries are performed and gender assignment is done at birth without the person’s choice? People may like to adopt a dog or cat instead of adopting a transgendered kid? The world likes perfect things but in truth nothing in world is perfect. The transgendered people are forced to use the male or female bathrooms and they have a right for their own bathrooms. All the forms just have male or female even in Drs Offices. The doctors are the ones who I think are supposed to be more knowledgeable make a change at least in their intake forms. If the status quo is denying the minority people their rights and discriminating against them for being born different that’s not right that’s never right. So now the society has a choice to keep living in old ideas deny the existence of transgendered people and make them suffer treating them as a mistake of a nature or given them their rights some of them to start off:
1. Acknowledge the existence of third gender
2. Stop gender reassignment operations if they are being done as soon as the baby is born just because some ill informed parents want their kids to be like everyone else. They should not make their kids all their lives by taking decision on the part of the child. I think the person should have right to deciding their own gender
3. Have more two choices male or female on the forms medical forms, job forms government forms etc
4. If transgendered community wants their own bathrooms they should be given them
5. Stop hate crimes and discrimination against transgendered people
