use common sense and call the woman what you would call any other woman

just because the woman is transgendered doesn't mean you have to forget about common sense and treat that person as a creature by trying to classify her by a name or term.

She is a woman and thats all she needs to hear or want to hear.

What if he calls her - His ole LADY

This could be a fun thread especially if the Dominants chime in with their preferred names for the Guy.

Pretty much this ^

Otherwise, trans, transsexual, or transgender as adjectives before woman/girl are all pretty standard I guess.

exactly
and if you want to call a girl a shemale get ready to get a sour look from her.

just because you call a transwoman a shemale in porn DOESN'T mean the porn terms are for real life.



This is the same as calling a BBW a pig or a black person a N or all of those nasty words. You use common sense, how hard is this regardless if you've never met a transwoman or not. Some men really need a eyeopening its pathetic that people even have to figure this out. Sorry to be rude but I think it's rather pathetic.

Some history

Just to bring to the younger members attention - there was a distasteful term ?tranny? that once was fairly commonly used here in the early days of this forum. In using that designation there was generally no mention of the feminine woman or girl at all - girls would simply be called just Tranny!

That term is still is used elsewhere though but thankfully, I don?t recall seeing it used lately on any of the TG-forums.

That's the only term that I can deal with and tolerate since it's the truth yeah I'm a tranny as for SHEMALE I've gotten in fights because of that one with people

The reason I started this thread was to find out which terms are offensive , I am not putting labels on anyone , it seems in trying not to offend that I already offended, sorry I asked the question

I hope your not thinking I got offended. I didn't im voicing my OPINON.
i just think its stupid you have to seek the answer on this question.

i do apologize if I sound rude right now but I just feel regardless of the situation or person you use common sense. Doesn't matter if you don't know anything about that person or what they are about you use the common sense of treating others the way you would want to be treated and also thinking about what is right and what's wrong.

if you thought of those things before making this thread you probably wouldn't have had to make it and that's just my OPINON as I said before

I think you just learned to not offend tgirls, don't say anything.
Anything you say can and will be used against you in a one sided judgement call many times.
Nearly none of them will agree on this topic at all, most have a different opinion.

They all call each other "Tranny" but you can't do it.
(This is akin to calling each other the N word but not letting other people do it)
Some call themselves "Shemale" but others freak out if you use it.
You cannot win.

Truthfully, you can use any term that you hear tgirls using.
If they say Tranny then you should be able to say it too.
Plain and simple.

Ive used tranny a few times on this site and no one seemed to mind. I think I started a thread about it a long time ago. Its only a matter of time before the liberal word police take the 'T' word away and seek punishment for anyone who uses it. Its already happening in that PC correction hotbed of America. Every special interest group has to have their 'word' that nobody can use. Whether the 'r' word or the 'n' word, or the 'f' word or the 'm' word (midget) Lately I'm starting to slowly see the 't' word get policed.
