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.
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.
It's a shame because t*anny sounds so cute. Maybe someday it gets reclaimed.
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"
