GhostalmediaX now treats the term cisgender as a slur
๐ฆ๐บ๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐Does it also treat tranny as a slur if so then I guess thatโs just equality.
TheHotzeThere is a difference between a slur and a descriptive word.
The respective term is trans-gender not "tranny", which is an actual slur now only used by bigots and transphobe porn addicts . In Latin 'cis' is to 'trans' the opposite proposition (not pronoun in case some idiot republican bigot misses the nuance here). It is an established term in medical and psychological journals, which as with transgender and non-binary people organizations are conveniently left out of this TERF and nazi fueled culture war we are witnessing. https://www.apa.org/practice/guidelines/transgender.pdf https://www.apa.org/monitor/2018/09/ce-corner-glossary https://www.psychiatry.org/patients-families/gender-dysphoria https://www.who.int/health-topics/gender

Not even that, since itโs not loaded with violence to the gills the way the other is.
All slurs are not equal. A slur against a privileged group wonโt have nearly the power that one against a disenfranchised one does. Thatโs why I find โhonkeyโ or โcrackerโ funny rather than threatening.
Yeah I know, thatโs what I said
And I was clarifying that I agreed with you.
