The students and volunteers who run the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Resource Office at the University of Northern Colorado would like to bring attention to the upcoming Transgender Day of Remembrance. The ninth annual event’s objective is to raise awareness and promote dialogue surrounding transgender-related concerns.
Essentially, “transgender” is an umbrella term that encompasses various gender identities, including transsexual GLBT community members. Individuals who relate to this term self-identify their masculine or feminine identities as something other than their biological and gender identities.
