Over half of Britons polled by YouGov think transphobia is a problem in the country. The study found that 56 per cent of respondents were concerned about prejudice against transgender or transsexual people. However, nearly three in 10 (28 per cent) Britons did not think there was an issue. Of those polled who thought the country had a transphobia problem, 65 per cent were women. In comparison, only 47 per cent of men answered the same way.
