When people are born, they\u2019re usually labelled male or female based on their physical characteristics \u2014 that\u2019s their assigned sex.

Some trans people don\u2019t identify strictly as male or female, and they may use terms like nonbinary or others to describe themselves.<\/p><\/div><div><p data-start=\"891\" data-end=\"1185\">Not all transgender people choose to medically or legally transition, but some people do \u2014 that might include things like changing their name and pronouns, wearing different clothes, taking hormones, or getting surgeries.
