Would love to know the percentage of Trans Women in the UK?

Find myself curious and appreciate that a Transgender woman to be really special, one of natures beautiful creations?

Sexuality is a colourful spectrum, it's not black and white.

It's very interesting how in the 21st century people still label and pigeon hole one another, let us strip the labels and categories...

We are all human!! 1 love

Nothing wrong with that. Regret what you didn't do, not what you did.

Not to be rude, I've been sexually active with TV's and TS's and like them, but they're not "nature's beautiful creations", are they? They're very much man-made.

You won't get a definitive answer. It's very difficult to measure, for a number of reasons.

Firstly, what do you consider "trans" to mean? Are you only interested in the number of MtF trans- people? Do feelings of gender variance count? If they take hormones but don't want gender reassignment? If they are pre-op but intend to fully transition? Or if they are fully transitioned?

Also, a lot of trans- people won't represent their gender variance on forms because of concerns about being unintentionally outed.

Plus, bear in mind that after fully transitioning, many trans-women will describe themselves as women and may not appear in any trans- statistics.

There's a report from the Office of National Statistics from 2009 called the Trans Position Paper, which contains a lot of information and statistics. I've not, personally, seen anything more recent.

The report discusses how reported figures tend to be an under-representation of the facts.

For the purposes of the report they took "trans" to mean anyone who experiences any sort of gender variance.

Because it's easier to copy and paste from the report than summarise quite a complicated situation, this is from the report:

"The Home Office ’Report of the interdepartmental working group on transsexual people‘ based on research from the Netherlands and Scotland, estimates that there are between 1,300 and 2,000 male to female and between 250 and 400 female to male transsexual people in the UK. However, Press for Change estimate the figures at around 5,000 post-operative transsexual people. Further, GIRES (2008) claims there are 6,200 people who have transitioned to a new gender role via medical intervention and approximately 2,335 full Gender Recognition Certificates have been issued to February 2009. The figures are more diverse when looking at the trans community in the UK, where estimates range from 65,000 (Johnson, 2001, p.7) to 300,000 (GIRES, 2008). To put this in context, the former figure is close to the population of Inverness, while the latter is similar to the population of Cardiff (51,000 and 305,000 respectively)."

That data is at least 6 years old but it might be the best estimate you'll get.

For comparison, using the latest available figures, the population of the UK is around 64 million, of which an estimated 53 million are adults. The split between male and female isn't quite 50/50 but that's a reasonable estimate given the accuracy of the figures we're working with here.

Whatever your definition of trans-, and taking the issues with obtaining accurate figures into consideration, it's still likely trans- women make up a fraction of one percent of the UK population.

"why thw percentage

Motorbikers make up 1% of the worlds population....

Something quite unique and special about the two.... If I find an M to F biker chick (with a surprise tucked away in her leathers) I'll be really excited to meet up

Should do a new thread calling out for that too?

If you meet a "m to f biker chick" she proberbly won't want you to touch the suprise tucked away in her leathers".

It sounds like you might be looking for a crossdresser rather than a transgender individual.

Bikers make up way, way more than 1% of the worlds population.

They are probably 5 or 10% just in the west but in the east they are well over 50% as most can't afford cars.

I would imagine that the OP means self identified "bikers" who are part of the biker subculture. Just because you use a vehicle with two wheels, doesn't mean you identify as a 'biker'.

I found myself substituting "TV admirer" for "biker," but I am probably being unfair.

I figured the same myself after posting. The 1% actually comes for the president of the American Motorcycle Union who once said that it was the 1% of back patch clubs that ruined motorcycling for everyone else.

In response the patches stared to wear a 1% patch to show they were proud to be that 1%!

UK statistics show that 2.6 % of the vehicles on UK roads are " motorcycles" ( or more correctly, powered 2 wheelers" - P2W).

Since there are 38 million registered vehicles ( against a population of approximately 60 million), and taking into account people owning 2 or more vehicles, then approximately 1% of the population ride P2W. Of which about 2/3 are " conventional " motorcycles, the rest are scooters etc.

Depending on your definition of " transgender" ( i.e. Anything from complete medical gender change; to those who " feel they are" transgender), and whether you are including M2F and F2M, ( and whether you include TV as well as TS ( since they are not the same thing );

The % of transgender people can range from 0.025% of the population to 5% or more .

So it's likely / possible there are more TG/TS than " bikers".

Your stats are a little flawed. The 38million road users is correct and is form DVLA licences issued but the 2.6percent bikes is what's currently taxes and up to 30% of bikes are not taxed at any given time.

It works to a little over a million bikes owned.

Of the 38 million licence holders around 3 million have a bike licence.

So around 7% have licenses and around 4% have bikes.

I didn't do bad first time round as a complete guess. I didn't assume we were taking whole population as I didn't think kids who can't drive would count.

Well stats indicate that there are roughly 1 million bikers ( users of P2W)

If they represent the population as a whole; and if tg/TS people care between 0.25% and 5% of the population ( wide error margin there) there should be between 1500 and 30,000?

I'm my experience, trans people make up about 80% of the friends on my best nights out.

You can not, and I mean absolutely can not, beat a crowd of girls when it comes to having a fantastic, fun, carefree and slightly crazy day, night, weekend out.
