    Ok sure. But it’s not really an effective protest as they’re fulfilling the requirement to enter the competition. Because the competition is steered by judges they will simply eliminate the trans men in the first round.

    The rule is there to make sure the judges are not sexually aroused when they see a trans woman.

    A greater means of protest would be if the non-trans competitors all quit the pageant. But their look is their only talent, so they won’t.
