Answer:

Transgender

Step-by-step explanation:

In 2015, the United States supreme court ruled that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by both the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

This judgement was passed due to the state-level bans on same-sex marriage. The judgement states that state-level bans on same-sex marriage were unconstitutional. States were then required to issue licences to same sex couples.

Answer:

transgender

Step-by-step explanation:

Transgender people feel that the sex assigned at birth does not match their gender identity, They were recognized thanks to a law known as "Obamacare", where the concept of discrimination was extended by including "for reasons of sex", that is, the gender identity (being masculine, feminine, neither of them or a mixture of both).
