    I was under the impression the literary device ‘four letter word’ typically referred to the word ‘love’

      That’s a funny misunderstanding and probably changes the context a lot, but no, “four letter word” means a swear word.

      Wikipedia has my back.

        What I thought at first was “terf” though.

        Although it’s not about amab trans women this time, I’m still wondering if terfs would have problems with afab trans men. Probably.

        Which is why the bathroom law things are so ridiculous, because then you will have trans men going to the women’s bathrooms, which I thought was exactly what terfs didn’t want; men in their spaces. I think quite a few trans men have been beaten up because of this.
