hey guys could we stop

I think when you murder a trans person and argue that the trans person deceived/trapped you into having sex, and manage to get a lesser sentence for it, it's not so positive.

Also when tons of groups on the social right specifically refer to trans women as traps and insult them using the word.

Also when a massive group of people deny the existence of an obviously trans character in an anime, and insult people who think otherwise.

Even though the origin of the word in the anime community wasn't exactly negative, what it has evolved into, even in the place it began in, is a word that is undeniably negative.

Besides, it's not politics. You don't refer to colored or lesbian/gay people with slurs. So why do it to trans people?
