Original Note:
It is not true that the life expectancy of a “trans woman” in the US is 35. That stat comes from a study documenting the average age at which “trans women” in several Latin American countries were murdered. Also, sadly, almost all murder victims die at a young age. https://www.science20.com/content/media_fail_the_life_expenctancy_of_trans_women_is_not_35 https://www.thestranger.com/slog/2019/09/23/41471629/is-the-life-expectancy-of-trans-women-in-the-us-just-35-no
