Hello, in the last months I habe taken an interest in the journey trans people go trough to be officially recognized as the gender they are and the surgical operations many go through to adapt their body to their Gender, how it differs in different states, and what can be done to improve this. Unfortunately (as you have probably read in the last sentence) I have no idea about anything regarding this topic. Therefore, I am asking if you know any worthwhile books, websites or any other resources where I can inform myself about these topics, preferably they should be in English or German, but I can just as well use a translator if it is any other language. Thank you for your answers in advance!
Arte has a German docu, and TED talks has some decent presentations.
Something more fictional would be the series Pose, or Veneno. Sense8 has a trans character, but doesn’t go into the topic itself so much, which can be nice.
As to books, I’ve tried a few fiction ones but didn’t find them particularly good.
Thank you for pointing out that there is a docu about this, I will be sure to watch it
Yeah there’s this one woman who has been a busdriver her entire life and comes out to her boss, it’s even on camera. She’d always go into nature to be herself and would take pictures, which I really identify with.
It might have been Swiss German, in that case just have eine Mass.
