Abstract
A population-related study of a group of 66 transsexuals is reported, and data regarding sex, marital state, social class and work maladjustment are given. Calculations suggest as a conservative estimate that there are 537 male and 181 female transsexuals over the age of 15 in England and Wales.Keywords
