      Still other trans people said it's definitely transphobic, & a couple said that my use of it is furthermore evidence that *I'm* transphobic.

      So what I have is 95% of people saying I'm totally fine, don't worry about it. And it's tempting to believe them. However...

      (It's also tempting to get defensive when I'm called transphobic—"That's outrageous! All my best friends are trans! etc etc")

      However, it's better to avoid these temptations. Cis people don't usually have very good intuitions about what's transphobic.

      And the fact that I have trans friends & care deeply about trans issues doesn't mean that I'm invulnerable to being inadvertently offensive.

      I do think that calling *me* transphobic because of this is unfair.

      But when I asked, I discovered that "mangirl" is sometimes used as a slur. And I didn't know that. I thought I made it up to describe myself

      But if I'd known it was used as a slur, I would not have put in on my profile in the first place. And the only way I found out is by asking.

      Kudos to you for going the extra mile to be considerate. Apparently this person thinks that drag period is transphobic--

      "Genderfuck" is a pretty accurate description of what I do, actually

          Well since you're planning to change your profile, maybe you can work it in to the replacement. "Video making genderfucker"?

          It's a good term. If I ever end up wearing ladies' clothes again, that's probably what I'd call it. Genderfuckery is good.

          "genderfucked" is literally how my best friend identifies, and they identify as trans.
