Abstract:
Transsexuality is a disorder in gender identity. Transsexuals belong themselves to the opposite gender. They discomfort with own sexual-physical condition and they try to change for a better and more desirable situation by taking hormones and performing surgeries. The main goal of this thesis is “to study the aspect of gender domination in transsexuals’ lives”. To reach this goal, twelve transsexuals (six FtM and six MtF), were conducted a structured in-depth interview. The results were analyzed using grounded theory and were categorized to sixteen main themes through data coding table. The results include 3 primary themes and 43 secondary themes. The main themes contain family reaction to transsexuality, social interaction and stigma because of transsexuality. The comparison of between two groups of transsexuals shows the gender domination on the experience of them but in a difference way: MtFs report more social pressure than FtMs. Female-natured boys confront a more intense social rejection and financial boycott because it is more difficult to accept a man who wishes to be a woman than a woman who is willing to be a man. Therefore the behaviors of a transsexual are regarded as shameful more vastly among female-natured. The reason is, it resembles losing “manly honor” that could be regarded as a kind of regeneration of “masculinity statement”.
