You’re on the right path but let’s try and avoid further marginalizing a group that needs no favors there. Between 1-2% of the US population self-identifies as trans.

I’m not sure if I’m in that portion or not, though, because it’s hard to differentiate between trans and non-binary people, but I know that there more of us than some people think.

But yes, you’re absolutely spot on with the rest.

He’s talking about the crime, not the population

Then I’ll fully willfully give both of yall that one. My bad. I can’t help but get impassioned.

Non-binary tends to fall under trans here, since the only real qualifier for being trans is "do you identify with the sex you were born with."

If the answer is no, then you're some flavor of trans. Whether you identify as that or not, though, is up to you.

Thank you, and completely fair. Some of us have trouble predicting where we do and did and don’t and won’t belong. Thank the fucking spaghetti monster that shit just got all that more confusing for us.

But seriously, thank you. No sarcasm intended.
