    Just make a rule that transphobes and other bigots will be banned like everyone else.

    And how do the mods find the transphobes to ban them? They’ll have to wait for an argument to happen and someone to complain about it. Waste of everyone’s time. This way transphobes will get triggered when they try to sign up, throw a tantrum, and get banned. That’s the plan; I have no idea whether it works in practice.

      Yes, that’s how moderation works.

      I don’t think as many transphobes have a problem with identifying as their birth gender as you think. Also does nothing you stop the bad actors and concern trolling. Might as well have “Black Gay Man” as an option.

        Fair. I don’t know how well it works on that instance. I see it as schmuk bait - someone who throws a tantrum over it is not someone you want to let in.
