Title: the term "transsexual"
Post by: Emm on June 02, 2013, 06:44:13 AM
I know it's not a huge issue, but I was wondering does the term transsexual bother any one else?

it doesn't bother me to no end, but it does just a tincy bit was wondering who else did or didn't like it (please leave little reason why!)




I corrected the spelling so you don't get any comedic answers

It's not a word I like to use. Uneducated people tend to hear the 'sex' part and weird out.

O/P, I wish you had done some reading first, this topic has been brought up hundreds of times. Transsexual is a term that is used by some people, and not by others. The term itself is not offensive. These threads, however, almost always turn offensive. I will not wait until that happens this time, I am locking this thread.
