Jorgebox, I'd like to remind you that Wikipedia has heightened standards of behavior in gender dispute topic areas. Your edits to this site are almost solely on
Talk:Trans woman. I suggest that you perhaps widen your scope of interest and find other areas of the encyclopedia to contribute to, as well as to learn the rules of how Wikipedia works. But if you keep just claiming that trans women are male, you are going to find that your tenure on this site will be brief.

I am actually trying to improve an article that is biased, incoherent and contradictory, thanks for your concerns. If you wanna contribute to many peak trans around readers, this article is the best way. Keep it up.

I guess you're lucky you wrote this on your own talk page. Had you written this elsewhere, you'd most likely have gotten a lifetime ban. I know this is nuts, but it seems like there's nothing we can do about it.

Do you think it is appropriate for an administrator to tell users to "widen your scope of interest and find other areas of the encyclopedia to contribute to"?
This is up to the user to decide where to contribute to. Some people join Wikipedia just to add or remove a comma, others join to work on one particular topic, others contribute on a wide range of topics. You don't get to tell people where to contribute. This is none of your business. On the contrary, as an administrator it is your duty to help users make constructive edits wherever they want to make them.
More importantly, is it appropriate for an administrator to threaten users with a ban for stating basic facts of biology? This is pretty discouraging to realize that you might have been editing Wikipedia for many years, but then there is this one topic where you write a basic truth about reality, and you get cancelled forever.
