Looking to see if I am welcom on kbin to express the viewpoint that it is not possible to be “trans.”

I assert that it is not possible to transition and that gender is the same as sex.

Is this an acceptable viewpoint on kbin, or will I be banned for expressing this?

Not looking to start a fight, just want to know if such speech is tolerated here.

    You say that there are plenty of instances, can you point me in the right direction?

    Like I said, I’m not looking for a fight. I’m also not looking at making 1,000 posts on all manner of topics only to find myself banned from the entire server because of post number 1,001 which says that it is not logically possible to both male and a woman. This is my genuinely held belief, and I don’t think the opposing viewpoint is so beyond reproach that my opposition isn’t even worth engaging. This is the problem that I had on Reddit - pro-trans people would come into conservative subreddits and report dozens of people for hate-speech, which would result in a site-wide bans, rather than a subreddit bans. A sub-ban is one thing, but a site-wide ban is something totally different.

    I’m just looking to avoid getting established on an instance that will ban me because I write down that, “Bruce Jenner isn’t a woman,” for example.

      And yet you again post something so offensive and factually wrong:

      it is not logically possible to both male and a woman

      If you were a facts and logic person you’d at minimum acknowledge that sex and gender are not one and the same (hint: they aren’t the same word and are not synonyms), and that gender exists on a spectrum as does sex. These are the facts, your assertions are not.

      No, I can’t, because the instance I’m a member of is very pro-trans, and we tend not to federate with instances that make the opposing viewpoint as large a part of their discourse as you seem to want to.

      If you simply can’t find a conservatively aligned instance to join, though, the beauty of the Fediverse is that you can create one. Create an instance that caters to the crowd you want to associate with. Let them come to you, then nobody can ban you for your views. (You will likely face defederation from a number of other instances, though, so be aware of that possibility.)
