58.7% of gender non-conforming students experienced verbal harassment in the past year because of their gender expression, compared to 29% of their peers.

 49% of Trans people reported physical abuse in a 2007 survey.

Trans women have a 1 in 12 chance of being murdered...or a 1 in 8 chance for a trans woman of color.

41% of Trans people have attempted suicide.

The Gender, violence, and Resource Access Survey found that 50% of Trans people have been raped or assaulted by a romantic partner.

Sorry, I got no statistics for heterosexual if that is what you are referring too.

never said hetro, I said other orientations and genders which means just that. I don't "pigeonhole" anyone we are all one race, human and therefore all should be inclusive, not just one.
