transgender murder rate, why I don't (usually) date cis men
I've gotten a bunch of replies being confused why I specifically said I am willing to date *queer* people, and why that seems to cross otherwise decent cis straight dudes off the list. It's not that I'm against it, I'm against a cis straight dude *initiating* that with me.
I've mentioned that the murder rate for trans women is pretty high, and unfortunately I even had some people straight up tell me I'm wrong.
Well, I'm not wrong. Trans women are in general at serious risk, and *black* trans women even more so.

Don't reply turning this into a debate by the way. Do that somewhere else. I'm not open to it.

To be clear on that one point: I am a white trans woman. I am saying, there are people who are in even much higher risk categories than me, but the risk category is already high.

I am just doing a course on Bullying through the anti bullying alliance.

There is a module that covers issues faced by the LGVTQ community,
I can't fathom why, when we are all human beings. Hopefully Mastodon is a safe place.
