Biological sex is real but saying so is bigotry and trans people are being harmed as a result and that's the medical system's fault

Is the murder rate for trans people actually higher tho?

Compared to gen pop I'm pretty sure it is. But I think it's more a case of the murder rate being higher for sex workers and trans people being more likely to be sex workers.

If you were to adjust the statistics for that you'd likely see far less of a difference

No way to really know since estimates of trans population varies wildly study to study.
