Transgender and other gender variant people in our society face many challenges. However, as a recent National Geographic cover suggests, a Gender Revolution is taking place. Legislation in Canadian provinces increasingly protects gender identity and expression. Gender neutral bathrooms are emerging. The media is covering trans issues more.
