Trans woman attacked on Amsterdam street

NL Times  

A trans woman was attacked on Admiraal de Ruijterweg in Amsterdam West on Tuesday. "Being attacked by 7 cis men because you are trans, it's just an ordinary event in our lifetime," victim Mala Badi wrote on Instagram. Badi told AT5 that she was cycling along Admiraal de Ruijterweg when three young men started yelling at her at a traffic light. A recently published study by Amsterdam UMC showed that trans people who underwent gender reassignment surgery are twice as likely to die prematurely than the rest of the population. Trans people are more at risk of cardiovascular disease, HIV-related diseases, lung cancer, but also unnatural causes of death including suicide.
