People who are gay, lesbian or bi (not sure why trans and other groups have been left out?) have to put up with an extra layer of societal bullshit. No kidding!

Also, not like efforts to make the world more accepting to queer people now have the added threat of internet-radicalized maniacs.

Likely because the research this piece is based on just looked at gay, lesbian, and bi folks - lots of research is restricted like this for a whole number of reasons. But yeah, no surprises here!

(Lots of good other research on trans health and wellbeing in particular, too, that shows the same thing)
