Since they are often beaten and killed - no. Just no.

but... ok so a lot of people keep saying this but stats i've seen show a lower risk of death by homicide if you're trans than if you're cis. ??

Ok so fair, there's more detail here - you're more likely to be a victim of homicide if your'e a black or latino trans woman, but if you're white then you're less likely.

I suspect this is a correlation v causation issue where cis people are more likely to end up in spaces where they’re killed for other things, but being trans is also a risk factor.
