Terminology on gender is constantly evolving, so it's important to stay on top of what words are ok and not ok to use. 

  • Transgender people can be asked invasive questions about their bodies. It's important to avoid phrases like "have you had the surgery" and "are you fully transitioned."

  • Telling a trans person they don't look trans can also be invalidating. 

  • Visit Insider's homepage for more stories.

Transgender terminology is constantly evolving and expanding, which is why it's important to stay on top of it to avoid saying something that is incorrect or hurtful to a trans person. 

Insider compiled a list of nine phrases that you should never say to a trans person that you may not have realized are transphobic. 

"Biologically female" or "biologically male"

Is "Fuck off you fucking sick freak" still acceptable?

If sincere concern (which I never had, to be honest) is going to be twisted into inscrutable sublime hate, may as well just be snarky, right?

I think that's the thing where bloggers spell out their gender preference, ei Dakmar: he/him.

It didn't seem necessary back when everyone understood biology.

I don't know for certain. Dissecting frogs was never my forte.

But what about transgenders? It sounds pretty mixed up to me. ;)

Unless you thought you were a frog, you basically get what I'm saying. :)

I never thought I was a frog. I think I get it.

Sometimes I am just a bit naive and slow about things.

I recall my teacher in 2nd grade said I was slow as molasses in January. :-/

Hah -- that's well put. As the article shows the point is to be trendy, not to solve any actual gender problem. Gliberalism is about hatching and following crazy fads and forcing them on everybody else by law.... which always works out to the enriching and empowering of the jew establishment.

Covid is such a fad -- we saw the other day the names of the jews behind it. "WHERE'S YOUR MASK YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT MY HEALTH!"

"Transgender terminology is constantly evolving and expanding" = how gliberals weaponize the language while stealing half of it one normal healthy word or term at a time.

Pretty much. Posting a story about Spain I read earlier today, you will notice a pattern, I guarantee.
