    Do you know information of any Sri Lankan Transgenders ? MTF or FTM

    There people are known in other part of the countries but not publish in Sri Lanka due to cultural concerns...

    Keep adding info of Sri Lankan Transgenders to this thread ...

    what you put is cross dressing. Transgender meaning someone transformed from their birth gender to the other gender....

    Hi

    A transgender is a person whose gender identity, gender expression does not match with their assigned biological gender. Basically transgender people feel as they born in a wrong body or they stuck in wrong body or something like that. And also "transgender" is a term of one's gender identity. not a term of sexual orientation. Trans people can be heterosexual, homosexual or bisexual. And the most important things are it's not a mental illness that can be cured or it's not their choise.

    I saw some where A LGBT organization estimates that between 0.1% and 0.25% of the population is transsexual. But i never (officially) met a transgender in sri lanka and my doctor said he only met less than 50 transgenders in sri lanka in his service. I think trans people in countries like sri lanka refuse come out because of some social, cultural and religeos problems.

    I'm 21 years old transgender and i came out to my family in this feb. Though my family understant my situation and accept me (thanx to my psychiatrist) i never try to start my transition in sri lanka because of those problems.

    If you're a transgender please email me; [email protected]
