It is this simple there is one human race, there are two genders male and female, there are three sexes male, intersex and female and there are four sexualities heterosexual (straight), homosexual (gay, lesbian), bisexual and asexual. Then there are transgender people, who are men that feel trapped in a women's body or women that feel trapped inside a man's body and who want their body to fit their mentality and personality and preferred gender idenity. All of these are acceptable to me a bisexual logical well reasoning and thinking proud white male. I do not buy in 57 genders or more, nor do I buy into white guilt or any other pc sjw bullshit. Just like Blair White whom is a wonderful well thinking intelligent proud outspoken transwomen who I would want to suck the hell out of. If you actually bothered to watch the video by this brilliant tranny which is only a slur if you choose to treat it as such because context matters. My nigga. So, a white guy who thinks it's acceptable to use the n-word as well... I guess that says a lot.

I don't feel like what I say is going to be respected, since you're already patronizing me. But the idea of a gender binary is a concept that's been rejected by multiple cultures across the world both past and present. I won't do your googling for you, but you can always look up "historical third gender". This is not "pc sjw bullshit", this is an idea that has been going on for literally centuries.

But you don't care about that, so I don't know why I'm bothering. I have a dream, a dream of world where people are judged based on the content of their character not on their skin colour, hair colour, eye colour, gender, sex,  sexual preference or trans status. I have no problem with trans people I have a problem with stupid people who think words only have solitary meanings when it fits your narrative unless when having a broad meaning also fits your narrative.

Sorry to tell you this but you are an idealogue who has been convinced of a certain narrative namely that feelings matter over facts, that imagination can become reality if you really push it onto society for it is there all problems lie (because I don't need any introspection) and that words with one or more negative connotations can only and will only ever be used negatively.

Words are complicated things they have defintitions but also intricate meanings, meanings which can be changed slowly over time. Homosexuals for instance co-opted the word gay which once just meaned happy to refer to them and now they also have done what black people and transgenders also have done, making a negative word that refers to them into a positive word about them. Several years ago south park already made the point that the meaning of faggot has changed in the negative it is used towards annoying people and in the positive towards homosexuals the same goes for tranny, nigga and niger.

Over time there has always been intersex and transgender people and yes in some cultures they have been forced into a third gender. In india you can offcialy register as a third gender and if you do that you will get certain protections by the state. However many gay men are basically force to do this in order to feel safe again the same goes for intersex and transgender people. I honestly believe that you think you're being civil in this, and I'll respect that. I don't feel you're being civil, and I feel you're ignoring the historical context and impact of slurs. I am telling you that I, a transgender person, consider the words you are using to be hurtful and am asking you to not use them. I did not state that the word you are using is solely derogatory. I understand that many transgender people do not consider it to be a slur and may even use it themselves. It does not change the fact that it is considered by a majority to be either a slur or a word recognized as unacceptable in the mouths of cisgender people.

If you wish to disregard this, that's your right, sure. But I am asking you to consider the feelings of other human beings. Alright you don't seem to be as far gone as I thought you were. I will respect your feelings. And not use what you consider slurs in this or any other topic related to alluka.
