      I’ll summarize:

      • The contest organizers don’t accept trans women (AKA assigned male at birth, transitioned to female)

      • This means that they are being transphobic, they aren’t treating trans women as women.

      • The person in the article is the opposite, assigned female at birth and transitioned to male. AKA a trans man.

      • This person is considered a woman by the beauty contest despite identifying as male.

      • He entered the beauty contest as a form of protest and to bring attention to the blatant transphobia.
