i love you transsexuals i love you transvestites i love you ftms i love you mtfs i love you "wrong" and outdated terminology i love older trans folk so so much
#nifty’s junk
#terminology ramble incoming in the tags
#i would personally be uncomfortable if i was referred to as any of these but this ain't about me!!!!
#and for the record the word “transgender” was coined in 1969!! the same year as stonewall!! and even then it didnt catch on
#until the 90s/2000s
#Literally why would you EXPECT older trans people to call themselves relatively very new words
#“but they're offensive-” my queerphobic mother saying “the transgenders” has and will always hurt me more than an AIDs survivor calling
#herself a transsexual
#these words will always belong to US more than transphobes
#you dont have to use them but dont attack people who do
#trans
