Yes, Gwen Araujo was really careless to get born in a place where transgender people are hated, mocked, beaten, and killed just for being transgender. If she'd been at all sensible, she would have been born somewhere else. And she would have worn a big button saying "I'm female but I still have a penis," so she wouldn't get beaten to death by straight guys who found out about it after they'd already had sex with her, because really, is a horny guy really supposed to make sure of things he's concerned about, and can anyone really blame him for beating someone to death when they turn out different than he expected? But people who go to kinky sex parties shouldn't be surprised if they get beaten to death anyway, because we all know how violent those kinky-sex-party people are.
"Safe, sane, and consensual" does indeed entail disclosure beforehand. It also entails not beating people to death for failing to disclose something.
Sarcasm aside, I'm still trying to figure out the "huge difference" between murdering someone after a kinky sex party and murdering them on their way to the store.
