reminder that trap is a transphobic slur, you should add a content warning in the title

This is funny because my enbyfriend’s gamer tag is “trapsonly”

yes and half of the trans people on tumble call themselves trannies.
the difference is the same as watching a movie with flashing lights after sitting through the epilepsy warning and getting your brain actually blasted by the day 1 cyberpunk 2077 braindance cutscene. one’s a choice, the other just happens to you.

I am trans and find “tranny” offensive. It’s a derogatory term.
nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 weeks ago
and people like you are exactly why content warnings should be standard and why every site/app with user generated content should have a word filter option.
that said, your discomfort should not prohibit others from expressing themselves

Girls call themselves sluts, depends how the demographic embraces the word, my gf hates the term princess but likes it when i degrade her

Reversal of stigma is a common phenomenon among minority groups. That doesn’t mean it’s okay tu use the term when you’re not part of the group.
