Abstract

This paper explores several research methods used by researchers and published in various scientific journals to examine transgender issues in various countries. Transgender individuals are one of the gender-based minorities in social life. They live in uncomfortable conditions. They face life’s problems, which include problems in expressing religious rights, economic stability, and getting professional jobs. Like other human beings, they also have the right as citizens. These rights include civil rights, including religious rights, political rights, and social rights. There are several research methodologies that may be appropriate to be applied in research on transgender-related issues, namely life history, ethnography, phenomenology, feminist approach, textual or hermeneutic interpretation, and case studies.[Tulisan ini mengeksplorasi beberapa metode penelitian yang digunakan oleh para peneliti yang dipublikasikan dalam berbagai jurnal ilmiah untuk meneliti isu-isu transgender di berbagai negara. Para individu transgender merupakan salah satu kelompok minoritas berdasarkan gender di dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat. Mereka hidup dalam kondisi yang tidak nyaman. Mereka menghadapi berbagai problem kehidupan, yang termasuk di dalamnya adalah problem dalam mengekspresikan hak beragama, stabilitas ekonomi, dan mendapatkan pekerjaan profesional. Sebagaimana layaknya manusia lainnya, mereka juga memiliki hak sebagai warga negara. Hak tersebut antara lain adalah hak sipil yang termasuk di dalamnya hak beragama, hak berpolitik, dan hak bersosial. Ada beberapa metodologi penelitian yang mungkin sesuai untuk diterapkan dalam penelitian pada isu-isu yang berkaitan dengan transgender, yaitu sejarah hidup (life history), etnografi, fenomenologi, pendekatan feminis, interpretasi teks atau hermeneutik, dan studi kasus.](This article is based on a preliminary of Dissertation that is written by Rr.

Abstract

This study examines how religiosity and social support shape the identities and impact the well-being of transgender people in Javanese Muslim society. This research uses a qualitative approach and employs in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, direct observations, and documentation within transgender communities in Yogyakarta and Central Java. This study included 11 transgender individuals from Yogyakarta and Central Java. The study reveals that transgender identity is formed through adaptation and negotiation within families, schools, social circles, and religious communities. Family and community support are key to maintaining mental health and social relationships, whereas limited gender norms and strongly held religious views restrict the social space for transgender people. This study stresses that the well-being of transgender people is not only affected by psychological and economic factors but also by positive social acceptance and access to inclusive places of worship. These results contribute to an integrative understanding of gender, religiosity, and social support within the Javanese socio-religious context.
