[–] captainastronaut@seattlelunarsociety.org 12 points 10 months ago (1 child) Yeah, I don’t think we give enough credit to shows like Will and Grace or Queer Eye that showed the greater population examples of relatable people from the community. We are a long ways from having trans representation that way. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 12 points 10 months ago (1 child) That and the "traditional" gay population makes up anywhere from 5-10% of the entire population, which is huge compared to the .3 -.5% of people who identify as trans. It's also why the democratic party as a whole isn't willing to stick up for the trans community, they aren't statistically relevant to the only thing they care about, elections. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
