Mennonites are found in many countries of the world. They have the idea that at its essence Christianity is about discipleship and a willingness to follow Christ at any cost. That nonresistance or pacifism is the answer to conflict and most of them refuse service in the military. Most Mennonites meet for their church services in meeting houses.

Although in many countries this issue, despite continuing to be taboo, is increasingly accepted by society, sadly there are still many countries in which gender conversion is considered a crime.
- Brasil. Is the country in the world in which the most murders of transgender people were registered in 2018, according to Trans Murder Monitoring: 167 murders of the 369 documented worldwide by this organization. According to another Brazilian LGBTI organization, murders have been increasing: if in 2008 there were 58, in 2016 they already amounted to 144. Homophone speech is not a crime at the federal level, something that has been used by ultra-conservative politicians and preachers to attack the LGTBI community.
- Uganda. Last December, the United Nations officials of the Kakuma refugee camp (Kenya) had to transfer several LGTBI refugees after being attacked by the local population and by other refugees while protesting against attacks received in recent months. There were 20 injured and some LGTBI protesters' shelters were burned.
- México. Is the second country in the world - after Brazil - in which more transgender people were murdered in 2017 and 2018 - with 71 murders in the last year. Most were crimes of transphobia.
-Honduras. The case of Roxana Hernández, a Honduran transsexual who died while in detention by the US immigration authorities, brought the spotlight on LGTBI people - mainly transsexual women - who flee Central American countries to escape violence and stigma. Since 2017, several groups of migrant transsexuals have tried to make visible with demonstrations at the border the security problems they face in their countries. In the case of Honduras, in recent years, attacks against LGTBI people have increased, specifically, against activists who fight for the rights of this community. Last November, for example, the murder of activist Jonathan Cruz, who was unable to enjoy the asylum he had been granted in Costa Rica, was confirmed. According to the Honduran NGO Red Lésbica Cattrachas, in its most recent report: between 2004 and 2017 there were 277 murders of members of the LGTBI community in the country, one out of every 3 crimes was committed against transsexual women.

The United States government established that the Equal Protection Clause of the federal constitution must be for all the habitants, including transgender, they must be respected and not murdered.
Also nowadays, in schools in some countries, the law protects children forming part of the LGBTQ community, being also allowed to go to the bathroom according to the gender they feel identified to.

Asian governments think that there is an incompatibility between transgender people and many aspects about Asian culture like their religion, rituals and spiritual practices.
The perception people have about transgender people depends a lot on the country cause there are many that doesn't perceive genders as we understand it on our western culture where we usually see transgenderism as transitioning between two genders, but for some people in Asia think this fluidity allows them to trascend in spiritual and religious functions.

Sharon's case.
It was October 2014 and he was 16 and life changed for him. Her parents had begun to accept the identity of her trans hers and she was looking for new ways to bring money home, away from prostitution. For this reason, when a woman offered to be a cashier in a bar, eight hours from her hometown, she did not hesitate. There they locked her up, dressed her as a boy and offered her as gay to people who came in search of beer and sex. The police carried out an operation and helped her. They left her in a men's shelter because of her clothes. Her dad had to go get her out. They went to look for the owner of the bar so that she would pay her the salary, but she did not wanted to. In the police's report, there is an intervention to the premises for "contested acts against morals", but there is no judicial cause that identifies Sharon as a victim. Sharon's mother lets herself be photographed with her; she hugs her in and out of shots of her, asks if she had enough dinner. The second time he trafficked her, he took her daughter. An adult trans, popular in the neighborhood, promised that Sharon would be her assistant in a beauty salon in Argentina, so they went to the city of La Plata. There her body already had a price: a year and a half in street prostitution to pay for her transfer. She was only there for six months, until her mother was able to raise money to buy her return tickets. I think this are things that commonly happen with they don't get enough attention. We need to stop treating transexuals and people of the LGBT community as if they didn't have rights, because they are humans too.

This is a story that was shared through social media. This mother revealed that her son has felt like he was supposed to be a girl since he was 2 years old. With the pass of the years, Zoe Lynn, the mother, decided to help his son become a girl named Avery. She knew she had to help him because one day Avery's father called and told her: "Just so you know, this morning, Colton said 'my life didn't turn out as planned. I think he should stab myself in the throat". This is were she started helping her son and teaching him how to a girl. After a week of these lessons, Avery told her: "Mom. Thank you so much for teaching me about transgender. It really made me feel like I'm not alone". This is were she presented her new daughter, Avery, in social medias. I think this mother was right, his son didn't feel comfortable in the body he was in, so she helped him, also because his life was in danger. People should take her as an example of what is like to be a mother.

1. What do you think about discrimination towards trans people?
2. What do you think is the reason for this discrimination?
3. Do you know anything about discrimination to transexual people in your country? If yes, what do you know?
4. Do you think this minority will gain total respect from the society in a near future?

5. Why do you think that sometimes this discrimination is accepted by some people in our society?

# data[].attributes.body
My personal opinion on this minority and the tough situation they have now a days around the world, just makes me think human being is terrible and does not care about other people´s happiness, we should respect them even though we don´t want to be like them, and the entire society has to understand that, because at the end of the story, we are all humans.
