Sebrina, a trans woman and ambassador for Just Like Us, shared, "The constant messaging [that] 'gay is not OK' made me isolate and repress my feelings... I thought life would get harder for me if I did."
Sebrina reflected on her experience saying, "I believe the bullies robbed me of the precious years I could have been myself as a teenager, which could have changed the whole trajectory of my life."
According to the study, 54 per cent of trans students confirmed experiencing bullying, mainly due to their gender identity, contrasting sharply with 21 per cent of their cisgender peers.
Research showed one in ten transgender pupils aged 11 to 18 face daily bullying, highlighting the alarming extent of discrimination in schools.
