Building inclusive products for trans people

<p><strong>In the 60s and the 90s, the media trained us to make fun of trans people</strong>&nbsp;(e.g. film &ldquo;Mrs. Doubtfire&rdquo;, 1993: Robin Williams is dressed as a woman to be hired as a babysitter for his children),&nbsp;<strong>to be afraid of them</strong>&nbsp;(e.g. film &ldquo;Psycho&rdquo;, 1960: the serial killer is a psychopath that dresses as a woman),&nbsp;<strong>or to aggressively out them&nbsp;</strong>(e.g. film &ldquo;Ace Ventura&rdquo;, 1996: Jim Carrey tears off a colleague&rsquo;s clothes in public to show that she&rsquo;s not a &ldquo;real woman&rdquo;, and all the people who slept with her throw up at the same time).</p> <p><strong>Nowadays, representation is rising</strong>. In the series &ldquo;Orange is the new black&rdquo; (2013&ndash;2019), the transgender actress Laverne Cox plays the role of Sophia Burset, a woman sent to prison for credit card fraud. The actor Elliot Page did his trans coming out in 2020. The make-up artist Nikkie Tutorial came out as trans to her fans in 2020 following some threats, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOOw2E_qAsE&amp;t=1s&amp;ab_channel=NikkieTutorials" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">her coming out video</a>&nbsp;was seen more than 38 million times.</p> <p><a href="https://uxdesign.cc/building-inclusive-products-for-trans-people-2b60981972e"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
