Okay, I assume you are addressing me since you remarks are posted immediately after mine. Therefore let me respond by saying:
I think I can reasonably say that I do indeed understand discrimination. I have often been on the wrong end of it, including both social discrimination and discrimination (more accurately persecution) by the state. My intention is not to invalidate the experience of transgenders, but I can say with great confidence that the alleged discrimination that transgenders generally make a great hue and cry about pales in comparison to the actual discrimination experienced by much larger groups, which is racial, religious, and ideological discrimination.
I am highly skeptical of the term transphobia. It apparently suggests that there is a fairly widespread sentiment out there in which some people fear transgenders, or suffer anxiety that is directly caused by the presence or existence of transgenders. I do not think such a sentiment exists at the level that would justify the coining of this term transphobia and giving it a place in the English dictionary. At any rate, transphobia is certainly not the explanation for my thoughts and opinion on why transgenders are more likely than non-transgenders to commit suicide or engage in self-harming behavior. The actual basis for my thoughts and opinion on this subject is dispassionate research and unbiased observation of social dynamics.
