“…More recently, emerging scholars have problematized such patterns within literatures. Whereas prior scholarship typically sought to understand transgender (Schilt and Lagos ) and intersex (Davis ) experiences through static‐binary models, frameworks, and theories, more recent scholarship critiques the systematic devaluation of transgender experience through the structural (Westbrook and Schilt ), ideological (Sumerau, Cragun, and Mathers ), and interpersonal (Mathers ) enforcement of cisnormativity. Further, such studies incorporate some transgender (Sumerau and Cragun ) and intersex (Davis ) experience, and demonstrate that transgender people face significant health (Miller and Grollman ), religious and nonreligious (Cragun and Sumerau ), educational (Nowakowski, Sumerau, and Mathers ), and workplace (Schilt ) marginalization due to societal patterns of cisnormativity that posit noncisgender (regardless of identification on the gender spectrum) people as deficient, unnatural, unexpected, and even dangerous (Schilt and Westbrook ).…”
