MODERATORS
Yeah, unless you're talking about transmissions pulled out and leaking fluid allll over the pavement like a dirty, dirty power transfer whore, tranny isn't an ideal word choice nowadays. Which, if you're using some of that sexy, slippery fluid to pleasure yourself while flipping through c/hotmopartrannies, carry on.
It was never exactly a good word to use, though it wasn't as widely known that it was predominantly used in a derogatory manner back in the eighties and early nineties when it got more common in usage.
But nowadays, the only people that use it regularly are bigots, so if you aren't one, and you use it, chances are that people will assume the worst, what with the worst often being the case.
But, you know, if you've got any pics of a Muncie m20 just sitting around, you know, maybe don't Bogart that shit
It wascallyed something Tranny. Edit: my bad it was Transy not tranny
Ahhhh, gotcha.
