"The prevalence of transgender issues in pop culture seems to have reached a pinnacle this year.

Caitlyn – nee Bruce – Jenner appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair. The movie "Tangerine," which stars transgender actors, took film critics by storm. Director Tom Hooper's "The Danish Girl," currently in theaters, tells the story of one of the first sex-change operations. And the second season of Amazon's Emmy Award-winning "Transparent," about a Jewish family coming to terms with their father's decision to become a trans woman, was released to raves on Dec. 11."
