unfortunately, across the world, escorts have always been seen as easy prey to thugs.
Lol!
It's not clear from the report whether this was simple transphobia or a robbery gone wrong, probably both. And no I am absolutely not condoning what these scum did, in fact I hope they have the same meted out to them threefold. I really hope this poor girl recovers, though she may be very badly damaged both physically and psychologically.Quote:

There's shedloads of evidence--I don't have time now but I can look out some links if anyone asks--that in any situation where a TS/TG is confronted by violence, that violence will be more extreme, more vicious and vastly more damaging than were the victim a 'regular' male or female. It's appalling but simply, statistically true: where a man might get a sore face, a TS/TG may well end up battered to death; indeed there are many cases where it is clear that a murdered TS/TG had sustained sufficient injury to kill her (or him) many times over.
Why this horrible fact should be true is complex and relatively poorly researched. But everyone should be aware of the risks TS and TG people (of both genders) take, especially in, shall we say, less sophisticated parts of the world.
Of course, I agree with you, MacShreach. But you have to keep in mind that it’s probably quite difficult to complain (in Ireland, from what I know) for simple robbery, as the money is the result of escorting. And I suppose that psychologically, it’s probably also quite difficult to let go of money so hardly made. Besides, we don’t know what the statute of these girls is in this country; we can’t be sure they are there in all legality. I would assume it should be hard for them to give everything to the first comer –and I’m sure there’s a lot of them…Quote:

In general terms, the law favours the complainer, after all. I would be the very last person to say something that might encourage attacks like this but the simple fact is that violent criminals intent on robbery are already in a highly dangerous, borderline psychotic frame of mind, which is why they habitually wreck peoples' homes and shit in their beds etc. Add to that the well described phenomenon of transphobia, which the anecdotal evidence overwhelmingly suggests will only add to the violence of the attack, means the situation is really grim for TS/TG people; they are left with the choice of not resisting, being robbed and possibly beaten, or resisting, which if it fails, will result in them still being robbed and possibly killed or as in this case put in a coma with who-knows-what potential longterm consequences.
Spending some time covering police courts would convince even the most sceptical, I think, that the former course of action, though unpalatable, is the better. Opportunist robbers will run when uncovered; if they don't, that means they're psyched up and tooled up and unless you have absolute confidence in your ability to physically overpower them, resistance is, as I said, shockingly dangerous.
And of course, it is certain that no amount of money is worth risking your life…
Is not the first time I read something bad about Dublin
