Tans?
Make sure you wear sunscreen even if you’re a tans woman.
She misspelled it, but decided it was funny so left it in.
I have the same visceral reaction when people refer to trans women as “a trans” or “a transwoman”, same goes for trans men
I do, however, love “doll”
I get that. I wouldn’t mind “doll” as just an old timey word for women in general, but as a word for trans women it doesn’t feel right.
Oh I for sure understand why anyone might not like the term for themself
I understood “doll” to be a word that trans women call each other, which I like. I would not like being called doll by someone other than a trans woman.
Yeah I hate those but T girl is fine to me aswell as doll
I could never imaging referring to someone by a porn category, that’s just gross.
I tried to come up with a clever response, but I don’t know porn categories and have to read into it first. Give me some time please.
Irony aside, yeah. Don’t do that.
OK, I checked. The three that fit best are funny, German and solo male.
What’s wrong with German?
Nothing, but being a German I think the porn category describes me. I have no clue what’s behind that category, but the label fits.
Knowing the stereotypes, it’s probably dirndl, sausage and beer.
It’s just language and actors.
Underwhelming 😞
You can call me “big dick” if you want.
“ebony”
You can call me amateur
I had no idea it was a porn category, so thank you for this post.
Never heard of “t-girl” before.
Does the term have history? I get that it is offensive, I’m just missing the why.
It’s often used in porn

I’m only familiar with ‘doll’ in the crime noir sense. While it has very misogynist connotations, I don’t see it as being among the worst.
Point being, I know I’m missing something, but don’t know what.
There’s been a bit of a catchphrase that certain allies use to signal their support: “Protect the dolls.” Apparently “doll” was once used to refer to trans women, which is all fine and dandy for people that like it. However, it is not a term I knew about before the catchphrase, nor is it one I particularly like. It comes off as kinda icky and objectifying to me.
Dolls are plastic facsimiles of “real” girls that are used as a child’s plaything. Definitely grosses me out when people use it as a phrase specifically for trans women. It’s a term that needlessly others us. Just call us women, if the situation calls for specifying that we’re trans call us trans women.
I don’t really mind if it’s being used as a term of endearment between women, but I’m not a fan of it coming from men or being used as a trans-specific term.
It sounds like a category alongside Marthas, Wives, and Handmaids.
It infers they are fake, not a real woman, just a facsimile of one.
It’s also pretty infantilizing. Dolls are a child’s plaything, the implication is that we’re just dressing up and playing make believe.
I prefer girl or that bitch over there
But I am about as neutral to tgirl as I am trans girl because they are both terms that refer to the same thing although I can see why, the only one that I have that visceral a reaction to is the t slur that is also really common to describe us on those sites and being called a trans is almost as bad but not quite although I hate both quite a bit
Seconded… if it’s that other T-word we’re both thinking of (there’s a V in there too…) yeah, just… ick. 🤮 Such a dated, horrid word.
Wasn’t the t slur I was thinking but agreed it is gross
I was thinking the nny one but i even thinking about the v one.
Why are there so many fucking popular t slurs for us
I’m not against people calling themselves things, I just don’t want people to ascribe terms to me.
Totally fair, I just see the two of you posting a lot of similar content and thought it was a funny coincidence.
Can I have some of that popcorn? I need to get my learning on
Weirdly I’m nonbinary and not a woman, but I don’t mind being called a girl 🤷♀️
CONSTO, TANNA MULIER.
Okay, tanned madam.

I don’t care to call anyone something that they’d find offensive, but I’m kinda interested in being fed a bag of old hammers. Will they be cooked in some way to improve their texture and flavor? I’ve been good, I think I deserve a Hammer Meal.
