@MadScientist deleted [this question](https://skeptics.stackexchange.com/questions/53224/): > "Do Trans people want to change "their biological sex"? Is that impossible?" He apparently also suspended the account for a day. While the "claimant" text posted is definitely in poor taste, it undoubtedly *does* reflect what many people believe. The question itself is, thus, par for the course here. **The user posting the question also posted an answer debunking the claim.** So this cannot be constructed to be a push-question either. There are *good* answers to this waiting to be written, providing a good counterpoint to the original rant in public view. In actual fact, I was 95% finished with writing mine *when the question was deleted without further warning*. I see absolutely *zero* reason why this Q/A was deleted and the user suspended, other than a knee-jerk reaction by the moderator. I request the question to be undeleted, the user's suspension be lifted, and perhaps an apology -- or at least an explanation -- be given by the moderator in question. ---- Also, I'd ask moderators not to abuse their "mod-hammer" powers. Deletion by mod rights means no voting, not even on a reopening. It also means that people might be cut off from posting an answer they might have been preparing, with no prior warning be given. This should be reserved for *clear* infractions of the site rules, and at the very least there should be an explanatory comment. It was IMHO definitely uncalled for here.
