minus-square@NotMyOldRedditNamelink8•edit-26 months agoYa, my first thought was that’s a semi useless number without a comparison and then skimmed the article to see if there was, but there wasn’t. I have 0 doubts it’s way higher than the non trans population, but for all we know it’s 80% for everyone else. Providing the proper numbers would also then let is say things like 4x more often or whatever it is. I’d also be interested in a breakdown by region
