Off the top of my head... The old testiment quite explicitly against it (body is created by god and therefore sacred, men shouldn't wear females clothes and vice versa) whereas the NT is more along the lines of the physical body being irrelevant / we are "all one" and the true self resides in the soul etc. so could probably be interpreted as pro-trans if one was so inclined.
Old testiment you can't really twist to be anything other than what it is. No tolerance for homosexuality, transgenderism, women being anything other than baby ovens, etc.
But NT gets top trumps over OT or something like that, because jesus read the OT and was like "nah that's mean".
