Why are transgender people more likely to commit suicide?

[Rev. Rye]

And the only reason he gave for it being reasonable to refuse to hire trans individuals is that knowing they hire Them could cost them business. And I can’t help but notice that this is the exact argument that Thack used when trying to justify refusing to hire Algernon Edwards as chief surgeon in the first episode of The Knick. And for context, Thack rejected Edwards for racist reasons (although at least part of it was because he wanted the job as well, although it was the racist points that he used to justify himself), and he got away with it because it was set in 1901. Sadly, I can’t find a clip of the scene where he argues with Miss Robertson about it and she argues how bullshit his justifications are and he can only reply “please find yourself another hobby.”

Also, some unsubstantiated crap about trans people being inherently predatory.
