I see! I'm curious to know, do you feel this way about every single slur that's ever been or tried to be reclaimed? I find it hard to argue against your view as well, though, honestly.
I don’t know about any reclaimed slurs. I simply don’t. But as it is, a lot of slurs nowadays are fairly prevalent in highly public spaces. For many, it does and will still cause pretty significant trauma. I don’t really believe reclaiming slurs like t-girl or equivalents is really worth doing for this purpose. Why cause a lot of people mental harm simply because you want to use a word? It’s simply nonsense to me.
The hope is to take the bite away from it, remove its power and deprive queerphobes of a shitty thing to call us. Again I find it hard to disagree with you though. Much to think abt...
Replacing the spoiler tag word is fun
