same here! :p

As we should!

I think people only see it offensive for the root word and/or because in the wrong context it could be used as a derogatory term. But yeah, I agree.

Context is key, to all things really. Most people dont realize it

Thank goodness someone gets it. Same with "herm".
Yeah okay, "Intersex" seems to be the word people are pushing for these days. Fair enough. But it's not as succinctly descriptive.

yeah i still tag my stuff with it as well..its what they be though i never use it for bad context, just whAt my characters be lol

My yeen is a made-up internet animal who I name what I want, to each their own.

Oh yeah I get what you mean lol

Same here. As others have expressed, context is key, and plus I've always felt like for my own characters i can refer to them however I damn well please :V

As long as it's not intended to be offensive you can say how you want it. Certain words maybe less so.

I sill use Cboy but also use Intersex to. As someone who looks like a guy but hasn't had bottom surgery I feel like I can use it

I wish more people were as open minded as you on that. I just don't get why it's become a thing in the past year when it's a decade old word in the fandom

It seems to be a lot of people getting offended on another's behalf. I stopped using e621 a while back during the whole 'andromorph' controversy after I checked in one day to find my gallery scraped of art and anything to do with the use of the tag 'cuntboy'.

Which is ironic, considering it was a porn site and I was merely citing it in the context of a fetish.

Personally I'm pretty much agnostic to the terms used (I use both male-intersex, intersex and cuntboy depending on the sensitivity of my peers), as I view the gender as a fun little fantasy that I can dabble with online without having to subscribe to a particular community with their own deep beliefs.

What bites me about all of this, is if you look across the pond at futanari you don't see half the problems and controversy that the whole cuntboy stuff does, same with 'dickgirls' really (and ironically some of these people have a rather toxic mindset to the reverse side of the gender)

Andromorph is also not at all an accurate term, like at all. I never did understand why they did that really.

People can say and be what they want to be in my opinion but at the end of the day it's just our preference. I just think its dumb when people get offended by us calling things what we want to be. A cuntboy is a boy with a cunt afterall

oh no, words

*Beats* Get out

you can't just get rid of some weird Ludroth

more words

If it's offensive, then I would use Ftm.

Good boi
now can i talk french about this in person with that cboi yeen some things to discus in depth~ >:P

ah yes, in depth

Good. Same here.

I will say it is an derogatory word, that's why when I'm talking about my characters in a general fashion, I use pussyboy or intersex. Of course I'm also into non-con, so I think the cuntboy is appropriate whenever one of them is getting used the way they were meant to be.

Its just how you take it really. I think its just a simple quick way to identify my yeen and other people who have characters like that, others not so much I guess. Some just get really mad at it lol

It always struck me as odd, the same people demanding you respect a persons chosen pronoun, but also demanding you stop using a term you are comfortable with. The double standard is palpable

The issue is mainly just that it's occasionally used as a derogatory word towards trans men. Also the word itself kind of just sounds derogatory. It can also be dysphoria inducing to a trans person to essentially feel as though they're being reduced to the genitals which they already feel a disconnect/discomfort with. It's complicated.

But anyways, that's why.
(I'm not here to debate with people, just to provide an explanation)

People are offended because they want to be offended.
This is the modern culture of the First World. "The Ethics of the Victim".
And this word and the people behind it are too easy a target to refuse to attack them.
Nobody protects us. We do not have a lobby comparable to LGBT people.
... Because we are out of politics.
And that killed us.

P.S. I suppose, this will be informative for you, sir:

I can respect that. People are always like "don't fetishize this, don't fetishize that, blah blah blah" on their pages and then their galleries and favorites are fetishizing everything else on this earth sometimes INCLUDING the things they tell you not to fetishize. They also tell you how "disrespectful" it is as if they aren't already total assholes on their Twitter accounts that don't deserve any respect as they never show any back to people. It's always about them. Screw this royalty bullshit.
