Why are transgender people more likely to commit suicide?

[Rev. Rye]

Yeah, funny thing, the article outright explains several risk factors, and they're not just buried in the text, they explain some of the key findings in a section called "highlights." All I needed to do was scroll down a bit, and then, I'd find, in big red-orange letters:

• Respondents who experienced discrimination or were a victim of violence were more likely to report suicide thoughts and attempts.
  
• Respondents who experienced family rejection were also more likely to report attempting suicide.
  
• Access to gender-affirming medical care is associated with a lower prevalence of suicide thoughts and attempts.
  

Scroll down a bit more, and you find that 98% of respondents who had experienced four instances of violence and discrimination in the past year had thought about suicide in that time frame. And 51% of that group actually attempted it.

Seriously, it's right fucking there in the link you posted. And frankly, if you're going to argue that their conclusions are invalid, you're going to have to do better than saying "I dunno, other groups get marginalised and they don't have the sort of suicide rates trans people do." Maybe it's because as they get more accepted, their suicide rates start to drop, which is something that the study itself points out is happening with trans people who actually get gender-affirming care. This is a Sargon of Akkad level of intellectual laziness.
