The following [[Outline (list)|outline]] is provided as an overview of and topical guide to transgender topics.

The term "[[transgender]]" is multi-faceted and complex, especially where consensual and precise definitions have not yet been reached. While often the best way to find out how  [[person|people]] identify themselves is to ask them, not all persons who might be thought of as falling under the transgender 'umbrella' identify as such.<ref>{{cite book|editor1=Sally Hines|editor2=Tam Sanger|date=2010|title=Transgender Identities: Towards a Social Analysis of Gender Diversity|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=UrVB2H5jDswC|isbn=978-0-415-99930-4|publisher=Routledge|page=50}}</ref> ''Transgender'' can also be distinguished from ''[[intersex]]'', a term for people born with physical sex characteristics "that do not fit typical binary notions of [[male]] or [[female]] bodies".<ref name="unfe-fact">{{Cite web| author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> | publisher = United Nations [[Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights]] | title = Free & Equal Campaign Fact Sheet: Intersex| date = 2015| url = https://unfe.org/system/unfe-65-Intersex_Factsheet_ENGLISH.pdf | access-date = June 8, 2016 }}</ref>

Books and articles written about transgender people or [[culture]] are often outdated by the time they are published, if not already outdated at the time of composition, due to inappropriate and/or outdated questions or premises.<ref>{{cite book|last=Lev|first=Arlene Istar|date=2004|title=Transgender Emergence: Therapeutic Guidelines for Working with Gender-Variant People and Their Families|author-link=Arlene Istar Lev|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=mwYsBgAAQBAJ|isbn=978-0-7890-21175|publisher=Routledge|page=241}}</ref> [[Psychology]], [[medicine]], and [[social science]]s research, aid, or otherwise interact with or study transgender people. Each field starts from a different point of view, offers different perspectives, and uses different nomenclature. This difference is mirrored by the attitude of transgender people regarding transgender issues, which can be seen in the articles listed below.<ref>{{cite book|editor1=Ruthellen Josselson|editor2=Michele Harway|date=2012|title=Navigating Multiple Identities: Race, Gender, Culture, Nationality, and Roles|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=09hoAgAAQBAJ|publisher=Oxford University Press|isbn=978-0-19-973207-4|page=117}}</ref>
