"Apologies. I have been informed that I have been using the wrong terminology. I should be saying 'Transexual'. I didn't mean to cause any offence. You learn something new every day." I was massively into trannies some years back and used to use Birchplace. Shemale was perfectly acceptable then as well as t-girls. But times change. | |||

"Apologies. I have been informed that I have been using the wrong terminology. I should be saying 'Transexual'. I didn't mean to cause any offence. You learn something new every day." No need to apologise; the terminology of these things is sometimes usefully vague but more often very confusing, sometimes deliberately so. The term transsexual seems to be less common itself now and transgender is used covering quite a wide range of people, including men who have been fully castrated etc. and surgically and biochemically altered to resemble real women, as well as those who still have male genitals (either because they don't want to lose them or like me because for medical reasons they can't be operated on). The lines between TS/TG/TV etc. are blurred, and are probably impossible to define clearly or conclusively. I believe that transsexual was used to indicate someone who had been or was being physically altered (i.e. in the case of men having genitals removed) but that doesn't seem to be the case now.

'Trannies' is pretty offensive in any case, and always was, whether you were 'into them' or not. | |||

'Trannies' is pretty offensive in any case, and always was, whether you were 'into them' or not." I frequented the chat room loads (circa 2008) and picked up the lingo from the crowd. A happy place then with no attitude. | |||

"It's funny how some words that are deemed perfectly normal* (I use normal loosely) are then taboo, uncool and in some cases very unacceptable a few years down the line. " Actually I agree about that entirely; for some reason 'transvestite' was at some stage deemed to be bad and 'crossdresser' regarded as acceptable, although they both mean exactly the same and personally I think that the former sounds much nicer and less derogatory. It is just 'tranny' that has a rather derogatory sneering sound to it. | |||
