We tend to overestimate the risk from rare events like terrorist attacks, and underestimate risk from likely events like flu, domestic violence, and dumb accidents.

No shit. Men are fucking dangerous. Curious whether this will be twisted to somehow paint transgender women existing as "violence against women and girls"
