I have noticed that certain states/regions seem to be better represented than others in terms of Susan's transgender population. Some of them make sense, e.g., Michigan is well represented likely because of the prominence of U of M in studying Transgender. Other states that seem well represented don't seem intuitively obvious as to why they are well represented, e.g., Oklahoma, where I was born. Since the current reigning theory of the cause(s) of Transgender are a prenatal occurrence of some kind, the current physical dwelling of a TG person isn't significant, rather the place where they were born.
Hence I make this poll out of a curiosity if birth location is linked to TG. I apologize to those who are here on Susan's for a situation that is not related to either a MTF or FTM issue, or for those who were born outside of the USA 50 states. Even though it's not all inclusive, it may provide an interesting clue about birth location versus TG status. And of course, the poll lacks the rigors of a proper scientific study. Likely more Texans will answer because more people are born there than in Rhode Island, and it could be that people on the West Coast are more willing to answer polls compared to people on the East Coast. All in all, it may hint at an interesting trend.
