I understand the challenges of that, and the challenges of having a safe space for women (hopefully of all spectrums…), but the way they handle it now is just bad and shouldn’t be encouraged.
If I was a woman transitioning into a man, would I still be welcome? I have the experiences that some women have had, but since I am becoming a man, then does that mean I can only comment in other communities now?
It’s just not a good way to handle things, I’m sorry.
The visibility issue is a direct response to your suggestion to making it private.
I read the trans men issue as a red herring to center men’s voices. I’m not sure about that so I let it fall by the way side.
Your final paragraph just said this is a bad way to handle it. There’s no response here because it’s a valid concluding paragraph if the previous points hold water. Obviously, I don’t think they do.

You don’t address the visibility issue. Disappearing is not the solution.
And you aren’t addressing anything I’ve said either, so I think we’ve come to a stalemate.
Have a good rest of your day!

Good lord. This is exactly the type of shit I’m making a point about….
Me bringing up a VALID view point of a woman who is in the process of transitioning to a man, is centering a man’s voice…?
That is certainly a take….
Like I said, I ignored it because I didn’t know. I thought it better to be silent than wrong.
So I addressed the only other point you made.
