But how you think that it will be better if someone does not need to disclose sex to someone if possible dating?

How many of these respondents were harrassed/attacked as a result of that?

And this survey seems to have made efforts to not only get results with discriminating effects but it can not prove it's own factuality.

''The study population included individuals who
identified as transgender, trans, genderqueer,
non-binary, and other identities on the transgender
identity spectrum, in order to encompass a wide
range of transgender identities, regardless of
terminology used by the respondent. Although
“transgender” was defined broadly for the
purposes of this study as being inclusive of a
wide range of identities—such as genderqueer,
non-binary, and crossdresser''

''Additionally, materials specified that
the survey was for adults at any stage of their lives,
journey, or transition to encourage participation
among individuals with diverse experiences''

These kind of studies usually attract more respondents with negative experiences and people with distorted mental illness,it is hard to project this on the whole community.
