non-binary & trans people are welcome to decide whether they feel they belong in a women-only community, so yes - they are explicitly allowed in this community …
You removed a comment by a person that said they were nonbinary and explicitly said that only women may post, do you see how that would counter the rule about nonbinary users posting?
They haven’t identified as non-binary, but they have explicitly identified as a cis man and as not trans … I don’t see what further discussion is necessary here or why you are raising this issue about another user.
(As an aside, it’s not uncommon for cis men to not think much about their gender or feel indifferent towards it, especially in a society that treats being a cis man as a kind of human default and anyone else is “Other”.)
Regardless, the trans inclusive policy is meant to allow trans people to self-determine whether they feel they belong in a women-only community, and this isn’t applicable in a case where someone explicitly identifies as a cis man.
Where is that explicit identification? I’ve seen them identify as trans/non-binary in other spaces before. Their hexbear alt specifically has they/them pronouns cited: https://hexbear.net/u/sharkfucker420
why you are raising this issue about another user
Because I care about this space, on Blahaj of all places, being trans/non-binary inclusive?
Edit: Also if they’ve said they aren’t trans, many non-binary people don’t consider themselves as such.
It’s not my responsibility nor appropriate for me to publicly debate or dissect evidence of someone else’s gender identity. As a moderator I have sufficient evidence for my actions, but you are welcome to raise this with @LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone or @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone if you have a concern.
Hey Princess thanks for raising this. I agree with Foxglove’s actions, and also that it’s not appropriate to discuss a members gender identity in public. Moderator decisions are final thanks for understanding 😊
I’m completely happy with this explanation, but as well I would hope that moderator decisions can be questioned? Because if not, there’s no accountability for the people that run these spaces, that smells an awful lot like Moss trying to take 196 to lemmy.world and I don’t think I’d want to participate here any longer… I have a lot of respect for you and love seeing your posts around, so I really hope that’s not the case!
Edit: To prove the genuineness of my statement, this is the vote tally I have for you in Voyager:
I thought non-binary people were explicitly allowed here?

You’ve tagged them so I’m happy to wait.

Not sure why this isn’t showing up or federating correctly on my end, but wanted to make sure you saw Lady Butterfly’s response
