Enza Anderson, Canadian drag queen and political gadfly. {{fact}}

  • Colin Quinn, American comedian and actor, acknowledges several same-sex encounters in his late teens and early twenties.

The word transgender, for the purposes of this article, is an umbrella term that can include transmen and transwomen, who may identify themselves as transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, androgynous, cross-dressers, transvestites, drag queens, drag kings or those intersexual (some prefer hermaphroditic) people whose gender identity differs from the gender they were assigned; or people who use similar terms to describe themselves. See those pages for an explanation of these terms. People on the list have been described according to their self-identification. This article is not sorted by transgender behaviour.

Regarding historical persons, please also note that for individuals at least until the beginning of the 20th century, there were no names for transgender behaviour, and therefore we have no statements that are a clear documentation for their reasons to behave the way they did; most of the time, we have no statements by themselves at all. All we can say is that by today's standards, these people or their behaviour would be considered transgender.

The people on this list have been selected because their fame or notoriety was in some way due or connected to their transgender behaviour.

List of LGBT Jews

[Quelltext bearbeiten]

While traditional Jewish views opposed homosexuality (and other sexual orientations and gender identities), more accepting attitudes have accompanied increased secularisation and social awareness (as well as a tendency to leftwing politics). These attitudes have had an effect on all the major denominations: gay rabbis are increasingly common, and same-sex marriages are sanctioned by both the Reform and Reconstructionist denominations (see: Jewish views of homosexuality). The following is a list of some prominent LGBT Jews.
