theaetherealmeadow asked: However if they were to reclaim it, it would take power away from trans women reclaiming it, and it wouldn't be fair to trans women. It seems as if someone loses either way. Do you think that the male trans community should coin a positive word for themselves so that their male privilege doesn't take power away from trans women reclaiming the word tranny? That's what my new opinion is, after mulling it over.
Trans men already have some trans men specific words. Once again, someone doesn’t lose either way because trans men have no call or right to reclaim the word any more than a straight dude can reclaim f**got.
