"The trans-community does not include people who are malicious and perverted."

What a bizarre thing to say. First of all, every community includes people who are malicious and perverted. Where does this idea come from that trans people are all angels?

But second, and more importantly, if there are no boundaries to a community other than, "whoever says they're trans us trans," and a swath of perverts and rapists say, "we're trans," and the rest of the trans community never clarifies and says, "no, they're not, because they fail to meet X or Y criteria," then how are we supposed to differentiate between them?

Again, this is the entire point. The "X and Y" criteria that denote that you're trans have never been meaningfully defined. This is necessary before we can even begin to have a sane, compassionate conversation about trans inclusion.
