This quote sums up my opinion on the matter and simple question do you know where said quote comes from? In its deliberate attempt to be real, it's more real than the real thing. Most shemales put effort into their appearance unlike females which makes them more attractive to me, the fake is of far greater value. Men in dresses is really vague and could describe a multitude of different unrelated groups like traps/femboys and drag queens as few examples. What people see someone as has no factual interference to what they actually are like if someone thinks the earth is flat then their opinion matters not because its not factually accurate to the reality that be Most people who are transphobic wouldn't see a difference between someone like astolfo and a trans woman, just considering both of them to be men in dressesĪny word can be used in a negative context and using the term to refer to trannies is factual incorrect no matter how you look at it.
I don't necessarily consider the word a slur, but I've certainly seen it used in a derogatory manner towards trans women at times.
