Quote:In a national survey of people who identified as transgender, a higher percentage of respondents who reported having been denied access to a restroom also reported having attempted suicide, compared with respondents who said they had not been denied access, according to a study recently published in the Journal of Homosexuality.

If being denied use of your chosen bathroom causes a person to want to kill themselves... it should be clear that they have issues with dealing with reality and need psychological counseling.

Your sex/gender/dreamstate/whatever should have zero impact on your ability to deal with the fact that you dont always get what you want in life. If a person, ANY person is unable to accept this fact they need counseling.

Getting repeatedly held out as a freak can be highly demoralizing.

Demoralizing yes, but it's not cause-effect. Trying to claim that it is, is dishonest in the least. Furthermore, if this was factually the situation, then suicide rates after SRS would plummet... the statistics do not support that theory.
