To anyone confused: this is bc “cis” and “trans” are adjectives! A blonde woman and a red headed woman are also the same gender! A mean woman and a nice woman are the same gender!
Please, please realize that Niantic is a tiny company. It is so small compared to the massive amount of traffic it’s getting at the moment. Here’re screenshots from LinkedIn:

Even Supercell, the company behind Clash of Clans, has double Niantic’s employees:
Realize that, as a company, Niantic is absolutely inundated with things to do. It may take awhile for some issues to be resolved. Right now, we have to assume priority #1 is getting the game rolled out to all the rest of the regions. Just because things like pokestops and gyms - while important things to moderate, to be sure - aren’t getting attention right at this very second doesn’t mean that Niantic and Nintendo aren’t dedicated to ridding the game of awful people.
Holy frig I had no idea. Did Nintendo not know how big this was gonna be? I hope Niantic is getting all the support from them.
