Transgender

Transgender is a term used to indicate a person has a gender identity other than the one they were assigned at birth. It is an umbrella term that covers numerous possible gender identities. Some transgender people identify as the sex “opposite” to their birth sex. Others have a gender identity that includes both masculinity and femininity (for instance, those who are genderqueer or gender fluid) and some identity as neither (those who are agender).

Being transgender is not linked to certain sexuality. Like cisgender people (people who do identify with the gender they were assigned at birth), transgender people can be straight, gay or bisexual.

Some transgender people choose to undergo surgery and/or hormone therapy, and some do not. Like everyone else, transgender people express their gender in various and individual ways.

• The AMOENA CONTACT range of breast prostheses is considered the best prosthesis. The ultimate in feminizing AMB transgender chests, these silicone breasts adhere to the skin and feature a realistic look and feel.

While padded bras with stuffing can temporarily enhance femininity for an AMB transgender individual, they can be difficult to manage and are prone to shifting and ultimately a temporary “fix”, which immediately destroys the illusion these individuals seek to create. An unruly padded or stuffed bra also takes away from the pleasure and sense of belonging that cross-dressing and transgender individuals feel when they wear women's clothing.
