    maybe trans girls should have that safe space too?

      I agree but how many trans girls interested in chess are there in Germany to host a tournament ?

        What reason, aside from unnecessary learned reactions or outright bigotry, would there be to separate chess by trans and cis? Deliberately separating trans girls from cis girls without some fundamentally necessary reason would be trans denialism or erasure, and trying to hide behind deliberately misinterpreting the suggestion would be a very cowardly form of discourse, so you may want to make your intent more clear if that’s not what you were doing.
