Since men can be trans, it is an issue which could be related to men's rights. Perhaps not a core concern, but it would definitely affect some men.

A few questions:

what does this have to do with mens rights?
What are you ideas about innate gender differences? I don't believe gender is a social construct, not even gender roles. The reasoning is that everything is EVOLVED, even culture and social roles and religion.
What are you defintions of maleness? Does it revolve around 'passing' or do you define it based on the presence of a y chromosome?
Do you think trans bio reality(for lack of a better phrase) could be put on a spectrum with hermaphrodites or others with xxyy or xyy or xxy or any other condition? I am mainly interested because feminism says that they aren't trying to turn men into women, but at the same time they claim everything is social and they advocate for women in male roles and men in womens roles and if trans identity can be seen as socially constructed, then how is that not trying to turn men into women and women into men?

I know that much trans discussion evolved from feminism and I also know that there is a big rift in feminism over it. As far as it goes I don't really care much cause it doesn't effect me, esp. as long as you aren't trying to change me...but if you have a y chromosome I wil welcome you as a brother and for the record even if you dont I still believe in equal opportunity, but not forced outcome.

Anyways, excuse me if I have crossed any lines or anything but I can't find many people that will explain this stuff to me outside of a feminist lens and propaganda.

how is this link transphobic?

You're obviously using disingenuous feminist-style politics to imagine persecution, and taking advantage of the fact that sensitive people who don't understand language will just agree with sensitive people they assume understand language. The project is not about exposing genuine transphobia, but advancing political agenda. You have a right to political agenda and action, but it makes you look bad to call out anything you disagree with as transphobic.
