== Spitballing expansion: trans women in media ==
This article could be expanded with a section on trans women in media, covering trends in the representation of trans women in media (i.e. stereotypes), and statistics on the un-/under-representation of trans women in media (as characters and as actresses). When I have time, I will try to draft something, but mention it here in case anyone wants to help or beat me to it, or argue it would be a bad idea.

This article could be expanded with a section on that topic, with links to and short summaries of [[Trans feminism]] and [[Feminist views on transgender topics]]. As above, I will try to draft something when I have time. [[User:-sche|-sche]] ([[User talk:-sche|talk]]) 20:54, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

== Summarizing the body in the lead ==

The article is currently tagged for improvement because the "lead section does not adequately summarize key points of its contents". Here is an attempt at summarizing the parts of the article which are not currently summarized in the lead:
:Trans women may experience [[gender dysphoria]] and may transition, especially by [[Transgender hormone therapy (male-to-female)|hormone replacement therapy]] and sometimes [[sex reassignment surgery]], which can bring immense relief and even resolve gender dysphoria.
:Trans women may be heterosexual, bisexual, homosexual or none of the above.
:Trans women face a vast amount of discrimination (termed transmisogyny, a subset of transphobia), including in employment and access to housing, as well as physical and sexual violence and hate crimes, including from partners (especially cisgender men); discrimination is particularly severe towards trans women of color.
Feedback welcome: is this a good summary of what the body says? Should it be added to the lead? [[User:-sche|-sche]] ([[User talk:-sche|talk]]) 17:23, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

: That would greatly improve the lead --[[User:John B123|John B123]] ([[User talk:John B123|talk]]) 18:42, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Spitballing expansion: trans women in media

This article could be expanded with a section on trans women in media, covering trends in the representation of trans women in media (i.e. stereotypes), and statistics on the un-/under-representation of trans women in media (as characters and as actresses). When I have time, I will try to draft something, but mention it here in case anyone wants to help or beat me to it, or argue it would be a bad idea. -sche (talk) 20:54, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Spitballing expansion: trans women and feminism

This article could be expanded with a section on that topic, with links to and short summaries of Trans feminism and Feminist views on transgender topics. As above, I will try to draft something when I have time. -sche (talk) 20:54, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Summarizing the body in the lead

The article is currently tagged for improvement because the "lead section does not adequately summarize key points of its contents". Here is an attempt at summarizing the parts of the article which are not currently summarized in the lead:

Trans women may experience gender dysphoria and may transition, especially by hormone replacement therapy and sometimes sex reassignment surgery, which can bring immense relief and even resolve gender dysphoria.
Trans women may be heterosexual, bisexual, homosexual or none of the above.
Trans women face a vast amount of discrimination (termed transmisogyny, a subset of transphobia), including in employment and access to housing, as well as physical and sexual violence and hate crimes, including from partners (especially cisgender men); discrimination is particularly severe towards trans women of color.
