From April 2009 to the end of survey collection in May 2010, Trans PULSE collected information from 433 trans people across Ontario. We are now analysing the data from the 80-page survey and, with this e-bulletin, are returning the results back to our communities. We would like to thank all those that took the time to complete the survey and pass it on to others. The information presented in these e-bulletins is only a small fraction of the results we've gathered over the year.

The following is the fourth of a series of e-bulletins that Trans PULSE will release over the course of the next several months and it is our hope that this will go a long way to enact change for trans people.  All e-bulletins can be downloaded from the Publications & Downloads page.

E-bulletin #4 (English): Challenging the Binary: Gender Characteristics of Trans Ontarians
E-bulletin #4 (French): Défier le binaire - Caractéristiques du sexe social des Ontariennes et Ontariens Trans
