Chinese Government Is Forcing Transgender To Die
In China, transgender faces a life-threatening situation.
- In September 2022, Chinese Central Government launched a “Clean Source” hundred-day special operation to destroy illegal transgenders. [1] [2]
- In December 2022, the Chinese government banned hormone replacement therapy (HRT) by banning HRT-related medicines at sale points and forbidding the transgendering practice in education organizations, such as high schools and universities. [6] [7]
- In January 2023, the government of Guang Dong Province Brought Illegal Transgenders To Justice. [3]
- In March 2023, many media noticed the situation in China, and make reports. [22] [23]
- To celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party, Illegal Transgenders Are Sentenced With Drug Trafficking Criminals. [4]
- The Supreme People’s Procuratorate of China is supervising the crime cases of being illegal transgenders. [19]
- The producer of HRT medicines said they might stop producing hormone products. [20]
Those policies have resulted in the deaths of several dozen transgender already. [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18]
From January 1, 2023 to the March 25th, 2023, there are at least 91 transgenders lost their lives, averaging out to one person every day. There are already transgender individuals that are forced to be refugee[21]. My knowledge is limited to those who had a Twitter account or were active on QQ. On Twitter, there have been 42 confirmed deaths among transgender individuals, and in my other social circles, mainly on QQ, there have been 49 confirmed deaths. This is an unprecedented and devastating loss of life, and it is heartbreaking to think about the countless others who have suffered and passed away beyond the scope of my knowledge. These individuals were someone’s friends, family members, and loved ones, and their loss is a profound tragedy that must not be ignored.
The situation for transgender individuals in China is dire, with ongoing erasure of lives and increasing deaths happening right now. The government’s persecution and discrimination against transgender is unacceptable and must be addressed immediately.
As a member of the transgender community, I am all too familiar with the dire situation, which highlights the urgent need for help and protection. Every day, Chinese transgenders, including myself, are facing threats and losing lives. It is imperative that the international community takes action and offers support in our fight for survival. The loss of so many lives is a tragedy that cannot be ignored, and it is imperative that action is taken to support us from this ongoing persecution.
All we ask for is a chance to live.
