摘　　要：变性人是指患有性别紊乱症的自然人个体,这些个体自我心理认同的性别与生物学性别不一致,有些个体为了达到两者的一致,选择通过外科手术改变外部生殖器官特征(俗称变性)以达到外部生殖器官特征与心理认同的性别特征一致。由于法律通常只承认生物学性别,由此导致变性人的身份和地位不被法律认可,进而导致变性人的权利和利益得不到法律保护。承认变性人的身份和地位是尊重其人格尊严及保护性别平等权的人权要求,也是落实宪法保护变性人基本权利的要求,已经有一些国家制定了承认并保护变性人权利的专门法律。变性人的特殊权利通常与其人格和身份有关,通过英国的诉讼案件可以归纳出变性人权利的特殊领域。Transgenders are those individuals who suffer gender dysphoria and discord occurring between gender identity and physical sex.In order to make them in accord,some individuals choose to be a transgender by surgical operation.Usually,physical sex is the only sex which registered and admitted under the law and that leads to the status and rights of the transgender not being admitted.Admitting the status and rights of the transgender is the requirements for protecting their human rights and for putting the constitutional rights into effects.Quite a few countries have enacted specific laws to admit and protect the rights of transgenders.The distinct legal rights exist in transgenders are related to their dignity and status,and we can work out the actual areas related to the rights of transgenders by analyzing the litigation in UK.
