About This Tool
We are fortunate to see that so many politicians in the world have never concealed their transgender identity in their political careers, and are activists who have the courage to speak out for equal rights and the legitimate rights of the LGBTQ+ community. For example, De Sartre is not only the first public transgender minister in Belgium and Europe but also the most senior transgender politician in Europe.
Here the random tool lists 22 famous transgender politicians around the world who are made great contributions. As LGBTQ+ people become more accepted, gay and trans politicians have gained greater prominence in recent years around the world.
