there is nothing to ask…

Do you support transexuals?  I thought they were your mortal enemy.

Yes, there is an active transgender community in Israel, and the country has some of the most progressive legal protections and healthcare policies in the region. Transgender Israelis serve in public office, and the community is supported by local organizations like Maavarim. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Legal and Medical Rights

• Identification: Transgender individuals can legally change their gender on identification documents without the requirement of undergoing surgery. [1]
• Healthcare: The public healthcare system partially or fully covers costs for gender-affirming surgeries, provided individuals go through a multi-professional committee for approval.
