I remember getting dog piled once for using the word 'transgenderED', and was told the same thing... It's offensive to trans people by adding an 'ed' at the end.
I try to be an ally of trans people. I really, really do. I have someone in my family he looks like he might be transgendered. He's like 13 and could just be really effeminate though. We aren't sure yet. Love him to death and he's a great kid regardless.
It makes me feel bad sometimes though, because I see so many of these trans activists being assholes online like that. Sorry Bishop, but it's hard to be an "ally" sometimes when so many of the people you're trying to ally with are assholes who keep moving the goal posts, not telling anyone, and then acting indignant about other people not realizing the goalposts have been moved yet again.
And fuck Stumpokapow for that moronic response too. "You aren't listening". Your feelings don't get to override the god damned definition of a word and basic grammar usage.

Are you the one that was berated by someone claiming that saying "transgendered" is the same as saying "homosexualed?"
