Comment by The Nerd:  Yes, trans women are women. Yes, Twisty can make any commenting policy she pleases. But now I'm faced with the issue of if this is woman-only or simply man-free, because I'm neither. I'm nonbinary genderqueer. Things like this don't necessarily make me angry (or else the entire world would be pissing me off all the time), but they do make me tired, they make me stop trying to participate. Which is a shame, because I strongly support the notion that femininity isn't inferior to masculinity in people of any gender.
