As a lesbian trans person I like the words dyke and tranny, but only use it for myself. They're funny and cute. I was honestly surprised to learn that people are so deeply against the words.
As a lesbian trans person I'll be glad to not hear those words said about me thanks.
It's a shame because t*anny sounds so cute. Maybe someday it gets reclaimed.
I agree, I was disappointed when I found out that the tr word is a slur, but that's just how it goes, you can't control people's perspective on words. The best that we can do is avoid them.
Try barrage and transmission, you got censored there
They were algospeek alternatives for your words. A way aroubd censorship. In mechanics we call transmissions tr***y
To begin with, that the offending words are automatically being replaced by "removed"
