and people like you are exactly why content warnings should be standard and why every site/app with user generated content should have a word filter option.

there’s other trans communities and other social norms online than r/mtf on reddit. People should be allowed to call themselves what they like imo, and you should probably try to make sure of the user’s actual stance before policing their language.
Your original comment was saying that the term is inherently derogatory and offensive. I’m trying to explain that in this case I don’t accept the framework of a derogatory terms but rather derogatory usages. That’s like, my opinion. As a self identified tranny, who still identifies as such in a non porn context. As do lots of my friends on twitter.
Feel like we’ve already been over all this back when some people online decided “queer” is always a slur and started aggressively trying to police people from using it…

I don’t see it. Trap being a slur is a minority opinion in the trans community.
