I will give likes for persuasive comments, and at the end will distribute an additional 10k mana to the most insightful ones. This is where the real bounty will be

I will resolve the market such that the number of shares a country gets is proportional to how safe I would feel there in terms of my rights and healthcare

Submit answers in the form of a country name only. The country must speak English as a primary (but not necessarily only) language

For the purposes of this question, the UK nations count separately

@LivInTheLookingGlass Can you please resolve?

The Equality Index has a ranking - I don't know if it's 100% accurate, but it is comprehensive. It's technically measuring rights for all queer people, not just trans people, but the correlation between a country's acceptance of gay people and its acceptance of trans people is probably very, very high.

For various English-speaking countries (higher number is better; score out of 100):

  • Canada: 90 (second-most accepting country on the planet, after Iceland; absolutely tracks with my own experiences visiting British Columbia. If I have to flee the U.S., this is where I'll go.)

  • U.S.: 85 (presumably higher in blue states and much lower in red states)

  • Australia: 84

  • U.K.: 82 (presumably higher in Scotland, lower in England & Northern Ireland - IDK about Wales)

  • New Zealand: 78

  • South Africa: 74

  • Ireland: 73

  • Fiji: 72

  • Belize: 66

  • Bahamas: 51

  • Guyana: 26

  • Jamaica: 26

If I had to guess at a ranking that includes the individual countries of the U.K., then it would probably be something like: Canada #1, Scotland #2, U.S. (blue/purple states) #3, Australia #4, Wales #5, New Zealand #6, England #7, South Africa #8, Ireland #10, Northern Ireland #11, Fiji #12, U.S. (red states) #13, Belize #14, Bahamas #15, Jamaica #16, Guyana #17.
