When an individual feels always hate for him in the eyes of other human in society, feels avoiding attitude, separation and teasing behavior, feels minority status even have no fault then it gives cutting pain to him when he feels misfits in society about him.

Transgenders.
The most oppressed community on earth especially in my homeland which have hidden pain of injustice, miss fitting of society. From birth till old age they face huge challenges and hurdles to survive. It is not their own fault to be a transgender but due to some harmonic complications they falls in this category. People stay away from them and advice siblings not to go the homes or gatherings even they are own kids. This thing tease them so deeply when they can't meet their own siblings.

What is transgender?
Ever pondered over what it truly means to be transgender? I am diving deep into this often misunderstood realm, shedding light on the unique challenges and experiences faced by transgender individuals.

It is essential to understand that being transgender is not about external appearance or behavior. It is about an individual's internal sense of their gender identity. This means a person could be born with the physical characteristics of one sex but internally they identify as the opposite sex or somewhere along the gender spectrum.

Challenges for transgenders.
However this journey of self-realization and acceptance is not an easy one. Transgender individuals face a multitude of challenges and hurdles. Stigmatization, discrimination, and a lack of societal acceptance are just the tip of the iceberg.

Health care
One of the most pressing issues is discrimination in healthcare. Many transgender individuals report being refused medical care or being treated poorly by healthcare providers due to their gender identity.

This discrimination can lead to a reluctance to seek medical help, resulting in poorer overall health.
The workplace is another arena where transgender individuals often face discrimination. Unfair treatment, from hiring to promotions, and even outright job loss due to their identity are common occurrences.

Legal battle
The lack of legal protections in many countries further exacerbates this issue.Furthermore, transgender individuals are often victims of violence and harassment, both in public and private spaces.This constant threat significantly affects their mental and emotional well-being.Transgender individuals also face a unique set of legal challenges. In many parts of the world, they are denied the right to change their legal gender. This lack of legal recognition can affect every aspect of their lives from their ability to travel to their access to government services.

But why does this oppression exist?
It largely stems from a lack of understanding and ingrained societal norms around gender. Many people struggle to grasp the concept of gender identity being separate from physical sex, leading to fear and prejudice.

what can be done to improve the situation for transgender individuals? Education is the basic key. Spreading awareness about what it means to be transgender can help break down barriers of misunderstanding and prejudice. It is also important to stand up against discrimination when you see it whether in healthcare the workplace, or everyday life. Supporting legislation that protects the rights of transgender individuals can make a world of difference. This includes laws that allow for legal gender change and protect against discrimination in all aspects of life.

Conclusion:
Being a transgender is about an individual's internal sense of their gender identity. Transgender individuals face numerous challenges, including discrimination in healthcare and the workplace, violence, and legal challenges. Remember, understanding and empathy are the first steps towards creating a more inclusive and accepting world. So let's keep the conversation going and together we can make a difference.
