Hi. In short, you can always come to me and ask why I locked/deleted something and I will explain.

Your question was problematic because of the wording of the whole question. Aisha went through the transition as confirmed in Chapter 1. Transition means that she likely went through reassignment surgery to become a woman and can therefore be considered to be transgender and not transsexual. Both terms are often shortened to "trans" which may be confusing to players not familiar with the terms. So I guess that is what happened to you? In this case, you can get a first impression about transition here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition The fourth point under biology

Your question was problematic as it may offend transgender and transsexual users on the wiki as it can be interpreted to be transphobic. By the time I read your question, a user reacted to it in a way that showed they were offended, asking you not to ask such a question. I asked the other mods and regular editors what they thought about it and the answer was to better delete it. Within a few seconds, the answer got several upvotes, showing that several others were offended by the question as well. The policies etc state not to offend others but that is what happened. That may not have been your intention but it came across as offensive. Which is why I said to the others that I would delete it for the time being (to let things calm down), telling the admins that if they don't agree with me, they can restore the thread. They said they wouldn't as they agree that the question is too problematic the way it is worded.

I hope that helps understand why the thread was deleted. The reason I didn't also come to your wall right away to tell you was that I wanted to wait for the official decision by the admins if the thread should be restored or not, but it was already long past midnight at the time so I had to leave.
