This is how it happens. From dinner-table conversations to children’s books, the lines of gender are being redrawn. Suddenly, transsexual and transgender people—those who do not identify with the sex they were assigned at birth—are everywhere in popular culture. Suddenly, people who transitioning from male to female, or from female to male, or who choose to live outside the gender binary entirely, are no longer universally portrayed as freaks to be gawked at or figures of fun, but as exactly what they have been throughout human history—real, flesh-and-breath people with feelings and dreams that matter.
