Looks like it was closer to 1 in 10 (11.9%) vs. 7.2% who identify as such, but that was only last year. Before then it was well below.
Definitely sone shows have higher representation, just like some communities have higher representation.

Even that. There’s zero change 1 in 200 people in media are trans. I’d be surprised if it was 1 in 1000.

If this was true 1 in 100 people on TV and in movies would be trans. That is absolutely not the case.

Exactly. And somehow that would be too many for many who refuse to believe they deserve basic empathy.
