Gender and Life's Path 🔗 [Link: rebeccaaugephd.blogspot.com/2007/06/transsexuals-of-brazil.html/]Transgender people in Brazil are the country's single most marginalized group. Fear, ignorance, and hypocrisy lead to discrimination and lack of education, which in turn render transgender people--more specifically, people who were born male but present themselves as female--subject to violence, social exclusion, drug abuse, crime, prostitution, exploitation, and severe health risks, each of which results in further discrimination.
