Transgender marriage is the marriage of two people, when at least one of them is transgender. Transgender people may marry cisgender or transgender people. Some transgenders tell their trans identity to their partner at a wedding, others did not identify as transgender at the wedding and later discovered their identity, the others hide their trans identity to their partner at the wedding.
Because same-sex marriage is not legalized in many jurisdictions, transgender people usually face special situations. There are many views on the legal gender of transgender persons. Some states do not allow a transgender person to change legal gender, others recognize a transgender's gender identity by request with requirements, other states view that the transgender person should automately become opposite sex by sex reassignment surgery.
In some jurisdictions, heterosexual marriage could be nullified by someone's sex change. A notable example is Lili Elbe. In 2017, Singapore nullified marriage between a post-op trans woman and a cis woman.[1]
Some states allow only unmarried people to apply for legal change of gender. If these states allow same-sex marriage, this restriction is dropped usually.[citation needed]
Some states do not allow a transgender person to change legal gender, marriage between a cisgender and the transgender who tell their trans identity to partner at a wedding could be nullified. A notable example is Corbett v Corbett.
There have been instances where a non-transgender spouse wants to cancel their marriage or file for divorce upon becoming informed their spouse is transgender due to said spouse hiding their identity at the wedding ceremony. In some cases, a non-transgender spouse wants to cancel their marriage or file for divorce when they noticed their spouse is (post-transition) transgender and the spouse had hidden their gender history at the wedding ceremony.[2] Married transgender people suffer divorces[3] and some couples receive therapy to save their marriage.[4]
Transgender couples protest against homophobia or transphobia by expressing their beliefs through wedding ceremonies.[5][6]
