And in 2021, 45% seriously considered attempting suicide in the last year. Among transgender individuals, this percentage rises to 60%. And in conservative Christian or Muslim environments, such as rural areas of the Deep South, all these percentages increase.   <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And this is in a country that ranks among the modern and secularized. In more backward countries, there are no statistics, but the percentages are probably much higher. <\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suffering is especially great among those rejected by their families in adolescence, as, according to the San Francisco State University, they are more than 8 times more likely to attempt suicide, more than 6 times more likely to have high levels of depression, and more than 3 times more likely to use drugs and be at risk of HIV.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem is not these innocent people, but the deranged and deranging societies that have created poisonous religions and cultures, unjustly disrespectful towards the former.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Everyone has their own sexual orientation(s) and gender identity. Since all of this is harmless, it is entirely respectable.
