Google 'number of attacks on transgender' and you will see page after page of newspaper reports on rising levels of serious attacks on transgender people.

Gender bending in any kind of visible way seems to provoke a visceral anger in many otherwise ordinary people. The response to homosexuality and/or gender nonconformity seems to be founded on a sense of injury. That those people threaten something fundamental. The response is often correspondingly serious.
