Tracee Nelley, also known as Trev, has been active in Agender, a nationwide transgender support group. She said in 2019: ‘Human sexual biology is more diverse than a simple binary male and female… Throw in gender identity and sexual orientation and there is a rich diversity in the human condition that should be celebrated not demonised.’
