    That isn’t what that number says. All it tells you is that at least 50% of respondents scored a zero.

    FWIW, trans rights are human rights. No disagreement there. But that’s not what that number is telling you.

      Moreover, they say that the media talk about 1% (or less, realistically), but here there are barely 139 respondents.

      Disclaimer: Just highlighting a fact for those who fall for confirmation bias, trans rights and blah blah blah to avoid harassment.

        To add to that, there might sadly be a survivor bias : some people who regretted were not able to give their opinion

          That’s a good point too. Come to think of it, you could also have had missing numbers from the other direction too: people who wouldn’t have regretted it but didn’t have the opportunity to give their opinion.
