==About==&lt;br /&gt;
[[bylines.social]] is a Mastodon instance created by/for the [https://bylinesnetwork.co.uk/ Bylines Network], with Yorkshire Bylines as the primary poster currently.&lt;br /&gt;
==Report==&lt;br /&gt;
A user reported [https://bylines.social/@YorksBylines/109619544194168335 this post], concerned that it represented an invitation to (re)open &amp;quot;debate&amp;quot; on whether trans people are who they say they are:&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;2023-01-02&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [https://bylines.social/@YorksBylines/109619544194168335 bylines.social/@YorksBylines] {{fmt/quote|If we can establish a consensus that trans men are men and trans women are women, it is likely to add to the safety of all as it increases the open-mindedness of society and challenges fears and divisions | Andy Brown / #Bylines #Transgender #TransRightsAreHumanRights}}&lt;br /&gt;
** linked: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;2023-01-02&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; [https://yorkshirebylines.co.uk/politics/transgender-rights-everything-old-is-new-again/ Transgender rights: everything old is new again] {{fmt/quote|Whenever any section of society starts to stand up for its rights it faces a barrage of criticism and people come up with some very overblown theories about what will go wrong if we start treating them more reasonably.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&amp;#039;s entirely understandable to be concerned about any framing of trans rights as a &amp;quot;debate&amp;quot;, but I think this post is more about seeking to establish a solid consensus &amp;#039;&amp;#039;against&amp;#039;&amp;#039; the the idea that such debate is legitimate -- where the purpose of &amp;quot;consensus&amp;quot; in this context is that nobody can get away with pretending there&amp;#039;s any serious debate on the matter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking at a smattering of other posts on the instance and on the Yorkshire Bylines site, they seem solidly reality-based.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
