If you are looking for a more secure and safe trans space, we suggest you visit https://hexbear.net/c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns. While we will try our best, lemmy.ml/c/transgender is far more open to the fediverse, and also to trolls. One of the site admins of lemmy.ml, nutomic, is also a transphobe, while hexbear is ran mostly by trans people and has a very active trans community.

I know I have it in my bio, because I am in agreement with it since before you made it a rule.
Your own headline says that not all instances have this as an option. That makes it unenforceable for those instances. It is also unenforceable for anyone wandering in from a main page, because they won't be reading this rule before posting. And then sure you can delete their post I guess but what if it wasn't transphobic?
And if you don't know Bill Maher, good. Just know that he is a ghoul and loves to say 'new rule' and then spout the worst take you have heard in your life on a weekly basis.
The post wont be removed, but I will suggest they change name. Repeated infractions might mean a removal, though, and if someone reports their instance can't do it, their instance will be ignored for the rule. The purpose is to make a safer space, we'll see if it works
👼 I am innocent
