New Study Destroys Left’s Claim that ‘Transgender Woman’ are Safe from Suicide Because of Transition

A new study totally destroys the left’s claim that men who have “transitioned” to women with full trans surgery are safe from committing suicide. In fact, the study found quite the opposite.

Like most claims that come from the left, the proclamation that men who have not yet transitioned are more at risk for suicide than those who have transitioned is based on ideology, and not facts.

As in all things from the left, they make their proclamations on what supports their agenda, not on reality. And the media just dutifully follows along like puppy dogs. But in this case, their claims are dangerous.

A new study published by The Journal of Urology finds that men who have undergone the painful (and never really successful) transing surgery of “vaginoplasty” are MORE at risk for suicide.

This means that the left’s claims that a trans-identifying individual is put in a better mental state after trans surgery is a lie.

Per Benjamin Ryan:

Study finds that the attempted-suicide rate among transgender women who received a vaginoplasty in California was twice as high during the period after the surgery compared with the period before the surgery.

The investigators analyzed data on all 868 people who received a vaginoplasty and 357 people who received a phalloplasty in California from 2012-2018. There was an average of 2 years of data before and after surgery.

A total of 22% of the vaginoplasty group and 21% of the phalloplasty group had at least one ER or in-patient psych encounter during the study period, whether before or after surgery.

If there was a psych encounter prior to surgery, 34% of the vaginoplasty group and 27% of the phalloplasty group had a psych encounter after surgery.

Among those receiving a vaginoplasty, the rate of suicide attempts was twice as high after the surgery, at 3.3%, compared with before, at 1.5%.

The phalloplasty suicide-attempt rate was similar to the general population, while the vaginoplasty group’s rate was more than twice as high as the general population.

“Patients undergoing [gender-affirming surgery] with a history of prior psychiatric emergences or feminizing transition are at higher risk and should be counseled appropriately,” the study authors concluded.
