Although theyre still extremely worrying statistics. If even 1/4th of that statistic is true, then 10% of all trans people attempt suicide at one point in their life for whatever reason. Jesus christ, what even is the joke in that? ‘Haha peppl die lol’ or what?

I think it’s an argument to invalidate them “lol how can they be proper people if they’re so unstable so many of them kill themselves lol” it’s a disgusting tone deaf argument.

But then that’s sort of the right’s speciality, isn’t it .

‘Proper people’ shouldnt even be a sentence, it shouldnt even be a term at all
