Home News Transphobia is on the rise in the US. Meet the transgender people planning to relocate to Europe because they can no longer stand the 'hostile environment.'

The nonprofit TRANSport provides support to transgender Americans who want to leave the country.

The group has received more than 100 applications from potential émigrés in the past few weeks. Leaving the US is "a life-saving measure for a lot of people," one of its founders told Insider.

In anticipation of this story being published, Rynn Azerial Willgohs planned to warn the local police in North Dakota so they could increase protection patrols near her home.

Willgohs, a 51-year-old transgender woman who's active in the LGBTQ-rights community in Fargo, has endured severe harassment, doxing, and stalking and has had to move homes. The next time she relocates, she hopes it will be to Iceland.

When Willgohs visited the remote island nation in the Atlantic on the northernmost fringes of Europe for the first time last year, she was struck by the level of acceptance and the difference in social attitudes. In the next couple of years, Willgohs plans to go into self-imposed exile and leave North Dakota for a place that feels more secure and has more protections for LGBTQ people.

Transgender women are just potential rapists in disguise.

Transgender men are women with a bad case of penis envy.

They lie. They aren’t attacked at all, they are avoided and they crave attention. Some know they need help but instead these old jags on The View and their ilk like them to stay ill as accessories and conversation pieces.

Good idea. Towing them in shark cages behind a 688 would do the trick.
