Transgender persoon wil in restaurants niet meer meneer genoemd worden.
Being transgender means that one’s gender identity differs from the gender assigned at birth.
There is often debate in society about how to address a transgender person.
For example, if someone was assigned male at birth but later identifies as a woman, that person would naturally prefer to be addressed as ‘madam’ and ‘she’.
However, during the early stages of transitioning, it may happen that not everyone recognizes the person as a woman, or mistakes them for a man. This can be particularly challenging if the individual still has a low voice.
