Dr Brenda Alegre shares her story of a happy childhood in the Philippines where she felt loved and supported as she evolved into her true self: a transgender woman. She worked hard at school, had lots of friends, felt loved by her family and admired many super heroes, including Wonder Woman who was her favourite. She faced negativity and discrimination at times as an adult, but this just made her stronger and inspired her to work harder to be successful and make a difference in the world. Brenda is an incredible person who has a multitude of achievements to her name. Some of her accomplishments include being a Registered Psychologist, she is on the Board of Directors of STRAP – The Society of Transsexual Women Advocates in the Philippines and she is also the Trans Secretariat of ILGA; the International LGBT Association. Brenda is a Lecturer at the University of Hong Kong where she teaches Sexuality and Gender. As an activist for LGBTQ and women in both the Philippines and Hong Kong, she has been invited to speak at many prestigious international events. Brenda discusses her dreams and fears with us whilst sharing her wisdom and knowledge about diversity, inclusion, sexuality and gender. She is a wonderful role model for the trans community and women everywhere. It was such an honour to interview Brenda, she is a true Wonder Woman!
