[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^So you have no interest in addressing the link between psychiatric morbidity and violence?

Why am I not surprised.

You go on and on about how "transgender people aren't violent!"  then when you are presented with evidence linking their psychological conditions to acts of violence, all of a sudden it's "you're being mean!  They have problems and it's all your fault!"

Absurd.   Address the facts provided ^^^^[/quote]

If you want to be serious about this, you need to cite data that demonstrates clearly that A (transsexualism) is correlated with B (increased risk of violence to women).  But there is no such data at all.  There's a smidge of something here, a smidge of something there, but it's not in any way substantiated. You'd have a much, much stronger argument based on violence statistics if you wanted to keep black people out of white people's bathrooms.  [/quote]

Actually there is:
"The overall mortality for sex-reassigned persons was higher during follow-up (aHR 2.8; 95% CI 1.8–4.3) than for controls of the same birth sex, particularly death from suicide (aHR 19.1; 95% CI 5.8–62.9). Sex-reassigned persons also had an increased risk for suicide attempts (aHR 4.9; 95% CI 2.9–8.5) and psychiatric inpatient care (aHR 2.8; 95% CI 2.0–3.9). Comparisons with controls matched on reassigned sex yielded similar results. Female-to-males, but not male-to-females, had a higher risk for criminal convictions than their respective birth sex controls."

And comparing this to black/white segregation is disgusting.  Truly.  Please check yourself, considering women have been the historically marginalized group, not men.
