If such is the case there should be data to confirm it. And if there's data that discrimination is not equal between the groups you can still do within-subjects and between-subject analysis to see how much discrimination correlates with suicide for each group.
My prediction is that homophobia and transphobia are about the same. (And not because I have a textbook on the psychology of predjudice and that's what it says lol)
