I appreciate where you're coming from, and thank you for educating me on the subject. Of course I don't want to offend anyone, and I apologize if the name is insensitive.
However, I think it's important to realize that this particular area is not meant as the part of the forum
for transgender members. It is for material
of (biologically male) transgenders in gloves. A better title would perhaps be "The people with penises in gloves section". Biologically female to trans male transgender would warrant their own section,
if there was any material with them in gloves. But I don't think I've ever seen anything like that. Please let me know if I'm forgetting anything.
This - or at least the part of the forum outside of the Sandbox - is still essentially a porn forum. Therefore it is necessary - in my opinion - to make a distinction between content that, simply put, features vaginas, and content that doesn't.* Some people like to only see penises, and they can go to the Men & Transgenders in Gloves sections. Some people like to see at least one vagina, and they can go the the regular sections. Some people like both, and they can go everywhere. Some people like to see neither, and....well they should probably just stick to the Sandbox. There's an argument to be had for a lesbian section, but the fact of the matter is that there are far fewer people on this forum taking issue with seeing no penises than there are who take issue with seeing only penises -
I assume. I might be dismissing a whole bunch of people who object to seeing
some penises, though. If so, petition me. Start a poll or something to see how many people would like a penis-free section.

Clearly there are vaginas in the Straight Men in Gloves section, but considering the subject of this site, the focus is on the person wearing the gloves.
Obviously this is very cis-hetero-centered take, but considering the composition - and size - of our membership, I think the way the forum is currently organized strikes the best balance between serving people of different dispositions, while not becoming too cluttered. Of course, if there are many more people who are missing a female to male transgender (
content) section, please speak up. If the demand is there, I'll definitely consider it. But please do make sure that you can provide content for it.
Btw:

Please note that this section is not exclusively meant for gay men. In fact, there's a clear separation between the gay part of this section and the transgender part. There is also a straight part. So really, you're being 'lumped in' with all men.
Now, having said all that, if there's anything I can change about the title to make it more bearable for you, please let me know. Should I call it the Men & Male Transgenders in gloves section? Or the M2F Transgenders, perhaps? I'm open to suggestions.
