2. Transgender (sometimes people just say Trans) describes people who feel that the sex they were given at birth doesn't match how they feel inside. For example, someone who was born as a girl, but has always felt like a boy. Or someone who was born as a boy, but has always felt like a girl. Sometimes when they are grown up a trans person will want to change their bodies. Sometimes a trans person will decide to keep their body as they were born, but live as the gender they want to be seen as, so they might change their name or their clothes or hair.
