Q: I'm a transgender woman, and it is time for me to transition at work but I am concerned about being able to keep my job. Will the law protect me from the discrimination I might face because I'm transitioning?
A: As far as we've come in the march towards equality, there are still many legal hurdles for the transgender community, particularly when it comes to employment—but we're making significant progress in the courts.
