Recent Australian legislative and policy changes can benefit people of trans and/or non-binary experience (e.g. men assigned female with stereotypically 'female' bodies, women assigned male with stereotypically 'male' bodies, and people who identify as genderqueer, agender [having no gender], bi-gender [having two genders] or another gender option). These populations often experience cisgenderism, which previous research defined as 'the ideology that invalidates people's own understanding of their genders and bodies'. Some documented forms of cisgenderism include pathologising (treating people's genders and bodies as disordered) and misgendering (disregarding people's own understanding and classifications of their genders and bodies). This system of classifying people's lived experiences of gender and body invalidation is called the cisgenderism framework. Applying the cisgenderism framework in the ageing and aged care sector can enhance service providers' ability to meet the needs of older people of trans and/or non-binary experience.
澳大利亚近期的立法和政策变革能够惠及有跨性别和/或非二元性别经历的人群（例如，生理性别为女性但被赋予刻板“女性”身体特征的男性、生理性别为男性但被赋予刻板“男性”身体特征的女性，以及那些自我认同为性别酷儿、无性别[没有特定性别]、双性[拥有两种性别]或其他性别选项的人）。这些人群经常遭遇顺性别主义，先前的研究将其定义为“一种使人们对自身性别和身体的认知无效的意识形态”。一些已记录在案的顺性别主义形式包括将其病理化（将人们的性别和身体视为有问题）和性别误称（无视人们对自身性别和身体的认知及分类）。这种对人们性别和身体无效化生活经历进行分类的体系被称为顺性别主义框架。在老龄化和老年护理领域应用顺性别主义框架能够提高服务提供者满足有跨性别和/或非二元性别经历老年人需求的能力。
