Transgender History - Overview

Lili Elbe
Lili Elbe
A natural variation in human development, transgender children, youth and adults have existed throughout human history, in all cultures and in every corner of the globe.

This "living" page provides information and links to documents and historical research that we hope will help parents, caregivers, allies and others attain a greater understanding of the history, struggles and contributions of transgender people.

From Joan of Arc to Lynn Conway, Reed Erickson, Christine Jorgensen, Julia Serano, Jamison Green and countless more, gender non-conforming and transgender individuals have spent decades, centuries and millennia working to find acceptance, assistance and the respect they deserve from the cultures in which they live.
