List of transgender peopleTransgender people are individuals who identify as a gender that differs from the one associated with their sex assignment. In some non-Western, ancient or medieval societies, transgender people may be seen as a different gender entirely, and there may be a separate category for them that is different from the binary of 'man' or 'woman'. These people might be described collectively as occupying a third gender role. These cultures may have traditional social and ceremonial roles for third gender people, which are different from men's or women's roles and social spaces. While cross-dressing is not synonymous with being transgender, some of the persons listed here crossdressed during wartime for various purposes.

Rule No. 9Rule No. 9 (also simply Rule 9) was a city ordinance in Los Angeles, California, which made it illegal for performers to "impersonate by means of costume or dress a person of the opposite sex" without a special permit from the Los Angeles Board of Police Commissioners. Enforced in 1967, this outlawed cross-dressing and drag, and effectively criminalised transgender performers. It was notably used to prevent transgender dancer Sir Lady Java from performing.
