On a couple of supposed Vinaya rules regarding monks and women and trans people

Sorry. It wasn’t in any way a response to you or your situation. It was just a reply to the post directly above it that stated that rules were made for people who need rules. That may be the case with mundane rules, but that was not the guiding principle the Buddha used.

Best wishes for your path! I wish I had advice to offer other than don’t give up (and don’t de-transition!).
