As a lesbian trans person I like the words dyke and tranny, but only use it for myself. They're funny and cute. I was honestly surprised to learn that people are so deeply against the words.
- As a lesbian trans person I'll be glad to not hear those words said about me thanks.
- It's a shame because t*anny sounds so cute. Maybe someday it gets reclaimed.

  I agree, I was disappointed when I found out that the tr word is a slur, but that's just how it goes, you can't control people's perspective on words. The best that we can do is avoid them.
