Although this is confined to the experience of Trans people living in the UK, I think you'll find it interesting in that it's inclusive of all TGs .... even those who only dress in the privacy of their own bedrooms. This despite frequent accusations that PFC are only interested in promoting the rights of fully transitioned transsexuals. PFC has alway taken the view that it is best to lobby the UK government one step at a time, push through what they think they can get accepted and then concentrate on the next priority. This survey therefore marks something of a milestone in that aim.
Online
Survey of Inequalities and Discrimination experienced by Trans People
in the UK
Any questions email eqreview@yahoo.co.uk
This is a request for you to spend some of your time completing a
survey.
URGENTLY. All results must be in by August 28th 2006.
Dr Stephen Whittle, Professor of Equalities Law at Manchester
Metropolitan
University and Dr Lewis Turner, both of the FTM Network UK and Press
for
Change are leading a small (and short) research project for the
Equalities
Review.
If you are trans identified in anyway, then this survey is for you. It
is
fully inclusive of all types of trans identity from crossdresser
through to
transsexual, incl. agender and polygender.
This survey is only for those people living (or recently living) in the
UK,
in relation to your experiences in the UK. But, your age or type of
gender
difference does not matter.
Please would you take the time to complete the online survey, by

The results of the project will inform the Equalities Review which is a
government-led programme to develop new ways of promoting equality. The
three main objectives of this survey are:
1. The extent and types of inequality and discrimination people
experience
because they are Trans
2. The areas of life where trans people have experienced being treated
unequally or have been discriminated against
3. To establish the 'trigger points' which have led to a trans person
experiencing inequalities or discrimination
4. To make recommendations for future research
It will take you around 35 minutes and it will be completely
confidential.
We have tried to be comprehensive for the purposes of the research, but
please bear in mind there are limits due to language, and also to the
number
of questions we dare ask you.
PLEASE ask ALL of your TRANS friends, including part-time cross
dressers,
transgender, transsexual, a-gendered and poly gendered people - and
anyone
in between to complete this questionnaire, BUT each person must only
complete it ONCE.
