Review Of High School I Met This Guy Named Tyler

In High School I met this guy named Tyler. He was a really nice guy and a very intelligent person. I met him in my sophomore English class. You can say that he was a little on the â€Å"weird† side as what people said in my high school. The reason he was so different and treated so poorly by kids in my school because he was a Transgendered. He would always get made fun of because he was a female dressed as a guy, acted like a guy when she was â€Å"technically a girl†.

She talks about how being labeled with a mental illness harms Transgenders. My last article was â€Å"Transgender People Suffer from Gender Identity Disorders.† I chose this article goes into detail about what Gender Identity disorder is and details about how they are treated. It talks about how Transgenders feel and what happens to them after be ing treated different. I wasn’t anxious into going into my research because I have had some background giving to me, but I was kind of excited to learn more information about Transgenders. The first article I read was â€Å"There is No Such Thing as â€Å"Transgender†,† by Thaddeus Baklinski. Bakinski who is a staff
