Transgender women in the U.S. are contracting HIV at extremely high rates, as they face poverty, discrimination, and gaps in gender-affirming medical treatment, a new study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention finds.

Why it matters: Two-thirds of Black trans women and more than one-third of Hispanic trans women surveyed across seven major cities have HIV, in what the CDC called one of the most comprehensive surveys of trans women in the U.S.

What they found: Interviews conducted in 2019 through early 2020 with 1,608 trans women living in Atlanta, Los Angeles, New Orleans, New York City, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle found that 42% of respondents with a valid HIV test result had HIV.

• 63% of participants were living at or below the federal poverty level and 17% had no health insurance.
• In the 12 months before the interviews, 42% of participants had experienced homelessness and 17% had been incarcerated.
• 34% of participants said they had engaged in sex work. Trans women are often overrepresented in sex work — which can increase HIV transmission risk — due to a lack of job opportunities and discrimination.
• 54% of trans women surveyed experienced verbal abuse or harassment due to their gender identity or presentation. 15% reported being physically forced or verbally threatened to have unwanted sexual contact.

Of note: The CDC's study notes that previous research has found low use of PrEP, a drug that can prevent the transmission of HIV, by trans women may be caused by medical mistrust.

• The agency also cites previous research that found access to gender-affirming medical treatment may improve how many trans women are accessing HIV treatment.

What they're saying: "The majority of our HIV interventions have not been tailored to address the needs of trans women — instead, much of our prevention efforts have focused on gay and bisexual men," Randolph Hubach, director of the Sexual Health Research Lab at Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences, told Axios.

• “These data provide a clear and compelling picture of the severe toll of HIV among transgender women and the social and economic factors — including systemic racism and transphobia — that are contributing to this unacceptable burden,” Demetre Daskalakis, the CDC's chief of HIV prevention, said in a statement.

oh my god how did I miss this hahahahahah

Trannies: *afraid of AIDS-be-gone*

Trannies: *not afraid of titty skittles they get from some guy behind the mall, also heroin*

Troons are truly too dumb to live.

 

[Ruin]

A lot of them were probably incels pre-transition, and thought, uWu maybe if I become beautiful woman people will want to have sex with me!

On the other hand, contracting AIDS from a troon and dying horribly sounds preferable to living in the hellhole that is Commiefornia. Or any ludicrously blue major metropolitan area, assuming any of them survive this year after St. Fentanyl's accused killer gets acquitted.

Knowingly spreading AIDS is a misdemeanor offense in the hellscape that is 2021 California.

 

[Screw Danlon]

By the admission of the article, trannies are homeless, drug-addled sluts with AIDS but none of these factors could conceivably be their own fault.

To be (overly, perhaps) fair, there is a pretty strong correlation of substance abuse, homelessness, and mental problems. And things like HIV and hepatitis also correlate with substance abuse and prostitution.

Which is the cause and which the effect varies, and I’m certainly not saying that all of these people are blameless angels. But it’s also not really surprising either - and I don’t think these people deserve quite the same contempt as the transtrenders, because some of them may just be ill.

I'm surprised that it's even a crime at all, but I'm sure there's an app for that.

Why can't more troons pay their way by being wholesome Resident Evil streamers like Sphere Hunter?

...Sphere's a troon? Damn. I saw a wahmen in the thumbnails of DMC lore videos and got excited at the prospect of another female DMC sperg like me. Alas.

Also, given the 34% prostitutes figure, I wonder how many of these are gay men vs AGPs. The AGPs probably have a lot less sex, so I'm guessing this is mostly castrated fags. Bedicked or dickless, fags gotta keep pumping those STD numbers it seems.

Comes as a surprise to me too, but I stopped watching his content after he bent over backwards to defend the shitshow that was RE3make. Glad I didn't stick around long enough to see the troon colors fly lmao

 

[Parallel Moon]

Isn't a tranny hooker how Charlie Sheen god AIDS?

All I can say is that I feel a little sorry for people who get seduced into the tranny cult. This shit is being sold as the solution to all their problems.

Also fuck people for trying to push prostitution as some normal empowering thing instead of the dangerous, psychologically damaging Russian roulette that it is.

because most are perverts who's primary motivation for transitioning is sexual.

...You guys do know that Sphere Hunter used to be a tranny pornstar, right? Is this not common knowledge anymore? Sphere Hunter made tranny porn under the name Sue Lightning, and also once fucked disgusting old radio jock Anthony Cumia.

and 17% had no health insurance

Only 17%? Amazed that it’s so low.

 

[keyboredsm4shthe2nd]

It's almost as if trannies, if not AGPs, are HSTS and much like the 80s, prone to riding bareback and bugchasing like degenerates, along with becoming homeless due to mental illness and catching aids if not from anal sex then from used heroin needles.

Transexualism is mental illness. Shocker.

I truly don't know why social workers even bother at this point.

I should hope that the workings of tranny porn never become common knowledge. I'm only aware of Sue because he was on the Colin Quinn show and later caused a shitshow with Anthony Cumia, where he tried to shut down r/opieandanthony over it.

The story had all the lolz: A poor innocent camtranny groomed into porn by Alpha Troon Natalie Mars, got an unnamed STD courtesy of trannyfucker Christian XXX, then retired from porn and camming after the mythological 'crywank' video on chaturbate.

If only Patrice O'Neal were still alive, he would have roasted Anthony over this shit until he tied a rope around his own neck.

Yeah articles revolving around demographic studies like this seem to always be written that way.

"This excessively high percentage of [group] suffers from [completely avoidable self-inflicted problem that other groups don't suffer from even a fraction as much] because [those other groups, especially if they're White] aren't working hard enough to stop them from fucking themselves over."

 

[Dona Morte]

This is yet ANOTHER case of the bigotry of low expectations.
A large amount of this can be halted with condoms, second method is monitoring viral levels when the cat is out of the bad.
No, no though it's "oppression".
At least you ain't getting R Kellied off a roof.

I see why they call him "sphere hunter" because I'll be goddamned if his spheres aren't hunting for his collarbone holy shit.

On the topic of the article, I'm shocked to learn that needle sharing and prostitution, two activities which have strong correlations with your average tranny death spiral, also are giving the trans community the love-bug at a shocking rate which mirrors the suicide rate.

So... anyone know if Yawning Sneasel has been gifted by the HIV?

I almost fell for the trick; but after being in the FGC long enough, there's enough case studies to make spotting them relatively easy. Ricki, Kayo, GLTY, etc.

 

[Daddy's Little Kitten]

Every tranny has AIDS, AIDS, AIDS, AIDS!

 

[Positron]

Even better news: the HIV prevalence among black am holes is as high as 62%!

 

[Haramburger]

I truly don't know why social workers even bother at this point.

the work is literally meddling in shittier people's lives so I'm sure there's powertripping involved. If it isn't about fixing them, maybe it's experimenting and seeing what you can get them to do I guess.
