Reddit admins forced the mods of /r/changemyview to ban the discussion of transgender topics. Is there a version of /r/changemyview here that allows transgender topics?

Part of the problem is that discussion of this issue in particular was very often not civil and created a hostile environment for users.
Probably true. https://slatestarcodex.com/2014/09/30/i-can-tolerate-anything-except-the-outgroup/ was written before most people cared much about this but certainly applies very strongly to it. I am fortunately not directly affected by it either way (I am neither trans nor a woman nor have any desire to pretend to be trans in order to get access to women’s spaces) so it doesn’t get my emotions up much to read any side’s arguments; I can see why that may be different for others.
