I think that finding a way to be involved in OTW, or talking with them about what makes you feel excluded, would be a good way to go. Because I am sure that they're not trying to make trans men feel excluded. And it does seem that the ideal way to get different voices represented is for those people to participate in the OTW. It really bothers me when people complain "my group is excluded," when it's like, well, someone from your group should join and represent themselves, then.
My understanding of the "predominantly female community" thing is that they're celebrating the fact that 1) historically speaking, media fandom was created by women to suit the interests of women, and 2) in a world where nearly everything evolved to suit the interests of men, this is a good thing. It doesn't mean that people who aren't women aren't welcome, or that only women have contributed to its development. In their mission statement, while acknowledging that women shaped media fandom, they also said that they welcome and celebrate gender diversity. I don't think saying that media fandom was primarily shaped by and for women excludes anyone else; it's historical fact.

This is just my interpretation, and I can't speak for them, of course, but I think
