From the ABC:

    Majority of harassed gays suffer in silence

Especially if they're not Gay, but Trans.

    A new study has found persecution of those who do not fit the heterosexual norm is rife in Queensland.

    A survey of 1,100 homosexual, bisexual and transgendered people found the overwhelming majority had been harassed or abused and most are suffering in silence.
    ...
    The gay-hate study found abusers are usually young men who do not know their victim and 75 per cent of victims do not report the incidents to authorities.
