I’m also uncertain if researchers in Iran tend to be unbiased toward homosexuals as homosexuals aren’t accepted in Iran
are good points to keep in mind. To be clear, though, I don't mean to suggest that AGP transwomen have a monopoly on personality disorders; while they may or may not be driving the trend, I think it is worth considering in the context of HSTS people as well, because transgender ideology can be cultlike and narcissistic and draw people who are high in those traits. I think the rate is largely so high because personality disorders are far more common in clinical populations, period; but cultural context and homophobia-based discrimination are important to keep in mind.
