Title: My post was in no way a "hate post" and I now feel more discriminated against.

Seriously, and the site's not even letting me report to the Moderators about this. I made a thread complaining about the new way trans people are being stereotyped in mainstream culture and media, which I would've thought was something I could talk about on the Discrimination board ??? and it got locked as a "hate post" for reasons I can't fathom. Did someone just read the title and not the topic? Was it because I expressed a negative view of Caitlyn Jenner? I mean really if I can't talk about this kind of stuff here, where is there?

I hope this issue is dealt with and I can discuss this topic in at least one of the threads I've opened.

Posts will be removed if they violate the terms of service or if the thread becomes hostile. If you have under 15 posts, you won't be able to send PMs - hence being unable to message a moderator about the issue.

The moderation team and administration team will be looking at what has happened.

Your reports have been received and the situation is under review. We are a support site open to all transgender people, even Caitlyn if she chooses to use the site. Since your post was very unsupportive of her, it had no future here. I hope you understand.

Hugs, Devlyn

I'm also locking this topic since site policy is not open for discussion.
