Abstract
Transgenders are those whose sex assigned to them at birth i.e., male or female, does not conform with their current perceived gender. Since transgenders are considered by the traditional binary male or female society as deviating from the established gender norms, they often face humiliation, discrimination or social exclusion. This paper examined the approaches made by the authorities of Malaysia and England when dealing with transgender issues. The authors employed a doctrinal research method for this paper. The authors collected data from relevant legislation, case law, textbooks, journal articles, statistical reports, press reports, and reliable websites. In addition, this paper highlighted the current laws that are in place to deal with transgender rights in both jurisdictions. This paper serves as a good source of reference to legislators, lawyers, academics, students, and the public at large and it creates an awareness pertaining transgender rights in the jurisdictions of Malaysia and England.
