Lmao the cope is unreal, the unironic "points" being made by damage controlling trannies in the replies is golden.

One of them posted an image claiming that, among other things, these statistics are explained by "the psychological effects of trans people being oppressed by society"

"I had to rape her, she misgendered me!"

Sound and fury signifying nothing.

Was able to get one of those URLs to work https://archive.is/5bIVF though I'm still not sure exactly which document on there is relevant. Couldn't get the bit.ly URL working, may have been taken down, but it's awful blurry, hard to be sure I'm entering it right.

That's almost 5 times more than hetero men

I'm a cynic, and thoroughly believe that the data for women is inaccurate by reason of low reporting rates of sex crimes to begin with--that is, the people sexually victimized by women are reluctant to come forward to authorities--followed by low conviction rates for the ones that are reported and brought to trial.

Very likely, especially in a country with outdated laws that make it impossible for women to commit rape, per se. Not gonna pretend men don't commit more sex offenses though, I just suspect it's a bit less skewed than it looks.

I wonder if some of these men who try to transition in prison legitimately believe that women can't commit sexual crimes.

It's probably just things like when a woman teacher has sex with an underage boy who can't consent. That happens a lot. Very prevalent. But it's physically impossible for a grown man to be raped by a woman.

You mean unless she uses non physical coercion ie "do this or I am going to tell x that you did something and get your head kicked in or arrested" or takes advantage of someone that is impaired.

The impaired could happen I guess but not the blackmail just say no

And take the risk that the threatened outcomes don't happen, proxy violence (interpersonal or state based) and reputation destruction are the main ways women express aggression.

And frankly the downside of them doing this and failing is pretty much non-existent for the most part.

But, even then, it's seen as not happening in the law, since if a woman says "if you don't have sex with me I'll tell everyone you raped me", they can just tell people you raped them afterwards too so it's your word against hers- and who'll believe your word? You're a rapist; she said so!

The perspective of this chart is mildly misleading since there aren't enough transwomen for there to be a million in jail, so you have to expand the relative number (per million) instead of simplifying it. I think a more cogent observation would be that even the ones not in jail for sex offenses are in jail for commonly related offenses, almost entirely drug, theft, and domestic violence. There is a pathological similarity to all of them.

It's true. The extrapolations were made to suit an emotional agenda. However, it does give a sense of how lopsided the relative proportions are.
