“THEY HUNT US DOWN FOR FUN”

Discrimination and Police Violence Against Transgender Women in Kuwait.


They hunt us down for fun. They don’t want me to dress like a woman so I don’t. I wear a dishdasha (traditional Kuwaiti male garment) now. I cut my hair short. After all that I was still arrested, beaten, and raped for having a smooth, feminine face. What can I do about my face?
