I'm assuming what I've blocked out is a slur, so I yote it.

Tap for spoiler
Shemale?Never thought of it as a slur tbh. Then again I could be horribly wrong.
Oh it is
Either way, I thought it would be better to play it safe than possibly ruin someone's day. Not worth a silly haha funni.
I think you did right by doing so.
Ok, but all you did was make more people pay attention to the trending panel which made people look at the slur.
Really I'd hope the screenshot would mean they wouldn't need to go and look, especially with the warning. Crap like this seems to keep cropping up in that panel so it probably needs to be vetted more.
Edit: Looks like it's been nuked anyway; problem solved(?)
Thanks, good call.
It's not very accurate for trans men and women; but I could see it applied to gender fluid people or others that see themselves as both male and female to not be a slur. They may think otherwise, though and I'd have to respect that.
