FRA : Being trans in the European Union

The trans respondents – an umbrella term encompassing all survey respondents who self-identified with one of the trans subgroups listed in the survey1 – of the EU LGBT survey point to serious and repetitive victimisation in the EU. Frequent discrimination and victimisation, disrespect and maltreatment, prompt persistent feelings of fear among trans persons. They may, in reaction, avoid certain locations. They may also not disclose, hide or disguise their true gender identity. These phenomena are notably more intense when directed against trans than other lesbian gay or bisexual survey respondents.
