The RLE is a discriminatory process but what is even more oppressing are the impacts it has on the lives of the people forced to endure it.  One of the biggest impacts felt by transgendered people during this time frame is that employment can become difficult. Because the person is not legally the gender in which they are living lots of employers do not understand the situation and therefore won't hire transgendered people during their RLE, or they fire them because of it.
