    After numerous temporary bans, I am the recipient of a permanent ban from Reddit. In a reply, I stated “Don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t say tranny.” From that Reddit determined I am a hateful individual. As their conclusion defined them as dysfunctional and extremely judgmental, their offer to file an appeal prompted me to author “Don’t ask, don’t tell, don’t say Reddit.”

    I know it isn’t powerful and offensive, but since they are offended by a belch, fart, eye-twitch or hiccup, I am sure it will do to make my point.

    Glad to be aboard.

        I certainly can but when someone tells me they do not like me as I am, it clearly tells me I don’t like them. No one needs toxic relationships.

          Maybe you should keep looking then. As in, someplace else.

          You can say all the transphobic slurs you want on Twitter, probably Facebook too.

            As I explained to another person, I have no phobias. Much like homophobic, the term would suggest I have an unreasonable fear. I am perhaps a bit claustrophobic. The LGBTQ community needs to attach a more accurate insult to people they want to dis.

      If you want to say transphobic slurs you’re welcome to rot your brain on Facebook or use X (the everything app).

        1. I have no phobia. I just get a bit nauseated. 2. I don’t believe the use of the word tranny is a slur. Are you that sensitive?

          1. That makes you transphobic

          2. That word is factually a slur, and continuing to use it when told it makes others uncomfortable is shitty behavior, not to mention transphobic and bigoted.
