The "T" Word

While I know that some transgender/transsexual people are trying to reclaim the word "->-bleeped-<-" I have to disagree with its use by anyone. The use of this by transgender/transsexual people allows those who are not in the affected group to believe it's acceptable. The use of this slang is considered dehumanizing and once certain groups are stigmatized as morally inferior, and not fully human, the persecution of those groups becomes more psychologically acceptable.
