Fan Casting Trans Tribulations in Sort by Tropes

Transgender (or trans) and non-binary people face a lot of challenges in life. While a minority of the world is starting to understand and tolerate people with sexual/romantic leanings towards people of their own gender, many still scratch their heads at someone who doesn't identify with the gender they were assigned at birth. As a result, trans/non-binary characters in fiction tend to be miserable due to dealing with their own gender dysphoria and/or other people's misconceptions.
