Why can't the rule simply be, you play on the side of whatever gender you were born with and if you don't like it then you don't get to play?

Shaming people to fit into a category they do not identify with is exactly what I was referring to when I said 20th century thinking.
It's appalling that you are not willing to be inclusive and accepting which we all know is one of the causes of depression. That is what Bell Let's Talk day is supposed to be about - letting people with mental illness, like depression, know that they are not going to be shunned or stigmatized.
It seems like that message has failed you.
