Interesting numbers in the survey...

23% of US respondents strongly or somewhat agree that being transgender is a mental illness.  19% of the US respondents would not want to have us as neighbors, while 71% think we should have some form of government protection from discrimination.

It's very interesting to see how the different countries compare.

Its interesting that there's a fairly strong correlation between intolerance and and where I'd least like to live even if I wasn't  trans.
