Comment on Looks like it was a ... boobie trap

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.

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

Could you point out the bigotry?

“I know I’m offending a group of people but I don’t care”

I don’t see it. Trap being a slur is a minority opinion in the trans community.

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

That’s cool but you don’t go and call girls you don’t know sluts, and in the same vein, you don’t call trans women you don’t know traps or trannies.
