    While you may be well-meaning, it's important to be educated on the language you use.http://mashable.com/2015/10/18/transgender-ally-words/#6S2lVg9y9sq2 …

        The biggest load of codswallop I have ever heard. Biology can't be changed. Feelings will not dictate my use of language

        I worry that articles like this come off more as telling people what they are not allowed to say, instead of as educating

        Which is a problem, since it lets the antiPC crowd make the issue less about respect and more about "word policing."

        Why do you want to micro-police other people's speech & thoughts? Even the well-intentioned ones. Seems like an unhealthy fixation.

        I suspect it's more of a tone problem. I think the author is just trying to explain how a group feels about language.

        Tone, is patronising, but content is worse. It portrays trans ppl as petty, fragile, intolerant, self-obsessed.

        Language is about shared human experience, not personal idiosyncrasy. We get to define our own lives, not the language the majority use.

        if you're well-meaning, you aren't transphobic. how can someone be 'accidentally' transphobic?
