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.
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.
Yeah that’s right, I just use it with my friends now. Before I figured out that it was such a big deal to people I actually was considering using it for my website!

Try barrage and transmission, you got censored there
Are those instances?
They were algospeek alternatives for your words. A way aroubd censorship. In mechanics we call transmissions tr***y
What censorship?
As a lesbian trans person I’ll be glad to not hear those words said about me thanks.
Are they used as slurs against you? I’m typically called gay, pervert, n word. Just stuff that doesn’t hit the mark.

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