Recently, in Russia a man shot his pot-op fiance to death because of the apparent shame he would face by having a trans wife.
I know a number of trans women and all but one of us has been beaten and/or raped by men we were dating or in the cases of sex workers, clients. Given this sample, I'm not surprised at the findings. I wish I wasn't.

Thanks for shedding more light on this subject Bionca. It's sad that someone of a different persuasion (and one that I'm very fond of) has to face the risks.
