Looking to see if I am welcom on kbin to express the viewpoint that it is not possible to be "trans."

I assert that it is not possible to transition and that gender is the same as sex.

Is this an acceptable viewpoint on kbin, or will I be banned for expressing this?

Not looking to start a fight, just want to know if such speech is tolerated here.

It all stems from a fundamental misunderstanding (or intentional ignorance, I imagine, in many cases) of what 'free speech' really means in the US constitution. All it means is that you can speak out against the government without being jailed for your views. It definitely does not mean that people can say whatever they want without consequences, even though that's what people who hold particularly abhorrent views would like everyone to believe.
