There are about three hundred ways to call someone gay. I could've used that in high school.

Yay genderform.

It's probably intolerant to make fun of this, but then I reached this part...

"I will not attempt to define all these terms, since no English words could do any of them justice. The exact meaning of each one is undefinable, and there probably isn't an exact meaning anyway, since some of these even differ among people. Similarly, I've included a lot of words that could be considered synonyms; the connotations of each term, however, are slightly different, and some people may identify with one and not another."

and saw that both "trannyboy" and "trannyboi" are options. Guys (or, um, ladies?) if your gender identity hinges on whether boy is spelled with a Y or an I, I JUDGE YOU.



Gender: Gynoid

Really? You're a female robot? I don't even know how to begin to say how stupid that is.

Gender: Fat dyke

If you can change it by going on a diet, it's not a gender. Alternately, does this mean inside some thin woman, there's a fat dyke trying to get out?

Gender: Gender pirate

Do they fight gender ninjas?

Yeah the one that annoys me is "cisgendered".

I'm not even entirely sure what it means, I think it's people who transition physically to the other sex and are gay. (Man who becomes woman, who is a lesbian, for example)

Uhhhh fail.

Cisgendered are people who AREN'T trans.

[rap541.livejournal.com]

Ah, but see? The ONLY people I know who use this term, use it to refer to themselves... and they are transgendered mtf who prefer female companionship.

Hence my confusion/misunderstanding/annoyance since the people using the term apparently don't know what it means either....

>< Another case of words mean things, people!

Can we start up, like, a Line of Judgment? And invoke our mystical powers of pointing out dumb shit so that any time someone wants to go to this site, we suddenly appear and point accusingly at them?

Normally I'm all about fill in your own gender, but c'mon guys. Fat dyke is not a gender identity; I know, because I *am* one.
