Cold Hard Facts

Cis people killed by trans women: zero recorded cases despite guaranteed media frenzy over any case.

Cis people raped by trans women: zero recorded cases despite guaranteed media frenzy over any case.

Trans women killed by cis people: hundreds of recorded cases every year despite massive underreporting.

Trans women raped by cis people: thousands of recorded cases every year despite massive underreporting.

In other words, the only basis for the claim that trans women commit any sort of violence against cis people is the radical feminist idea that trans women commit violence against cis women by existing.

This is not precisely true. There are well-documented cases of trans people in prison right now for murder, some of whose victims were apparently cis. Probably, the most famous example of this was the woman who was suing for transition-related healthcare while in prison for murder, Michelle Kosilek, who is in prison for the murder of her wife.

Ms. Kosilek STARTED transitioning while in prison, though - and the only trans murderer I can think of off the top of my head other than her, did so in an extremely unorthodox fashion (essentially, forcing her husband to swim until he passed out from exhaustion and drowned, with the intention of cashing in his life insurance policy). The scenario of the “Dressed to Kill” style transsexual killer is unheard of outside of a movie, and that is the spectre that always gets raised in the discussion of trans women being violent - the idea of a ‘man’ using the guise of a woman to commit horrifically violent acts.
