Abstract:
The article focuses on the participation of transgender activists in politics. Transgender people are getting involved in activities similar to feminist movements, and feminist struggles have been the inspiration behind them. Transgender people are concerned about gender inequality, and want justice. Many female-to-male transgender people identify themselves as feminist, and take interest in women's studies. Despite the similarities, transgender issues and feminist issues are getting separated, and opposed to each other. Transgender activists need support from feminist organizations, and this will give birth to transgender feminism.
