These aren’t guys who claim transgenderism or non-binary identity, these are men.

They didn't poll anyone already at the conference. There were no genital checks at the door. This is Cullen White making a prima facie observation of people who present as men and claiming they "lied about their gender identity when signing up."

It sounds like both you and White feel entitled to dictate to others their gender.
