So now calling someone a homosexual is offensive? How? Why? Next year, is using the word trans going to be offensive? Good lord...

Heterosexual spaces are considered offensive too. It's not even allowed on reddit. So much for "privileged" Do people not even look up definitions to words before spouting them?

The whole argument for "spaces" is always frustrating for me. No one has to let anyone into their group, and they can have any reasoning they want. Some of these people fight tooth and nail to get into these spaces and then immediately change them for the worse. It's just a game to them, they don't actually care about what the group or space is about.

I had commented on a similar post on reddit, and I agreed that "homosexual" can be used as a derogatory slur.

I suppose it depends when and where you were raised. When I was younger, homosexual was clinical sounding and used by homophobic people to degrade gay people. It was less humanizing than "gay." I can just hear it being yelled in a southern American accent.

What is odd is that it's suddenly now being described as offensive.

I mean, defining what a transwoman or transman is requires you to acknowledge the genitals they were born with, which is transphobic.

Anyone who try to justify that TRA are anything but incels this should definitely clear it up.

Incel: Not willing to have sex with me? BIGOT/TERF, YOU ARE CANCELLED. And then all the TRAs clap in celebration Incel inner monologue: "Somebody will have to sleep with me now, right? Right? weeps

So being female or homosexual is offensive now, got it!

Is there a dictionary that hasn't gone insane with socially encouraged misogyny?

I read today on reddit : "why still use the term "homosexual"? It's old and it excludes ppl" 🙃🙃

Doesn’t that definition of male bring TIMs on board?

There needs to be an element of discernment when navigating the internet. A quick search revealed -

“MedicineNet was identified as the least reliable website, with the lowest average score, deficiencies in safety information, and the highest number of statistically significant differences favoring other in our pair-wise comparison.“

If anyone needs a medical website to determine whether they’re male or female, chances are they’re an apache helicopter anyway.

Is this real? Really? At first I thought it was a meme

Nope it's certainly for real for young lesbians and bi girls & women. Google the Cotton Ceiling (might want to try duckduckgo, wouldn't put it past google to hide it :)

For lesbians it's transphobia full stop to dislike sexual contact of any kind. Bisexuals are worse than those TERF lesbians cuz they don't even have an excuse.

They condescendingly allow those of us who are survivors of male sexual violence time to heal, but damn girl, hurry up & examine your predjudices.

And then they wonder why LGBdroptheT is a thing.

[–]OrangeBurrito 9 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 0 fun10 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It's because trans men, unlike trans women, were born female and don't have the male ego to loudly call for the re-definition of what it means to be a woman.
