So, in the real world, there’s still no evidence that violent assholes are somehow more likely to target gay men than gay women by any ratio that can’t be totally explained by how men are more likely to be targeted with violence than women.

1st claim:

A few facts for the Straight Dope.

2008 Hate Crime Statistics.

Cite: in the US, lesbians are much less likely to be victims of a recorded hate crime than gay men in absolute numbers. Now in relative numbers, that’s very difficult to judge because it’s very difficult to get statistics about the number of gays and lesbians in the US. …

For the third time, cite that men are victimized about as much as women in 2010, in the general population:

@Measure_for_Measure

“…males (15.7 per 1,000) and females (14.2 per 1,000) had similar rates of violent victimization during 2010,” according to Crime Victimization, 2010, a report by the Bureau of Justice Statistics utilizing the National Crime Victimization Survey.
