And Just How Many Transgendered People Are There Actually in the US?

Jonathon Last takes a look at census data rather than the lies and exaggerations put out by activists and comes up with a number somewhere between 21,000 and 89,000. To put that in perspective the number of transgendered people in America is on par with the number of people born with extra thumbs every year, the number of practicing Druids, and the number of people who've ever won $100K or more in the lottery i.e. a very, very small minority.

......

The Census estimates that there are 324,000 Wiccans in America, as of 2008). Back in 2001, the American Religious Identification Survey found that there were 22,000 Americans who practices Santeria; 33,000 who identified as “Druids”; 55,000 Scientologists; and 84,000 members of the Baha’i faith. This is the order of magnitude we’re talking about with transgenderism.

But when’s the last time you saw any of these groups having their cause pressed on the front page of the New York Times?
