Thanks, Doorstop.
Josef, suicide rates for post-operative transwomen are about the same as for the general population.
Our campaigners use it as an argument to try and persuade health authorities to stump up for the cost of treatment.
The long term cost to society of a suicide is of the order of £1,000,000
The cost of treatment including surgery for a transwoman is of the order of £10,000.
It's a no-brainer.
