      The LGBTQ community has experienced numerous legal successes in the past decade, but recent controversies have brought the transgender community to the forefront of civil rights litigation.  While there are varying definitions and positions on what it means to be “transgender,” Merriam-Webster defines being “transgender” as “being a person whose gender identity differs from the sex the person had or was identified as having at birth.”  A recent notify by the Williams Institute at the UCLA Academy of Law estimated that 1.4 million – or 0.6% of U.S.  adults – identify as transgender.    The same report set up that while there may be more adults who identify as transgender, the highest estimated percentage of individuals who identify as transgender is actually set up within the youngest age group—ages 13 to 17.  The study found that 150,000 youth ages 13 to 17 identify as transgender, making up 0.7% of youth in the U.S.  One of the authors of the research , Dr. Jody L. Herman, stated, “Our estimates offer that thousands of youth could be negatively impacted by laws that would limit their access to school facilities and undermine protections against discrimination.”
