I'm confused. If they are using a dead name how are they not trans?
They are trans men, who the organizers consider women as opposed to the trans women who can't compete because they consider them men.
I'm gonna need a pen and paper for this one.
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.
