Like the title says please say if this is offensive or not and I will delete but I feel safe here to talk about contriversal subjects and have a healthy debate.


So just thinking back to when RuPaul used to do "SheMail" and they changed it because people found it offensive. Now I saw a bot advertising Shemale Porn (bad bot!!), but do Shemales just not a thing anymore or is it because it is offensive to transgender people who haven't gone through full transition and get body dismorphia?

Shemale is very offensive to transwomen. It basically knocks off the idea that we're not women by gender and we're just men playing/masquerading as being women.

That's what I thought. But what about intersex? I never really understood the concept there, obviously shemale is the bad term to use. Also thanks for taking the time to comment it was one of those weird questions I thought of at like 2am :XD:

Intersex is a whole 'nother package. Still don't use shemale, but intersex people usually get decided one way towards the "binary" by their parents upon birth.

No worries, seeking information shouldn't be ridiculed in any capacity as long as it's done genuinely
