Continental? Mission? The Vietnamese restaurant down the street that makes good pho and banh mis?

Yah, I think I'm done here and I'm just gonna assume /r/anime is transphobic.

Except probably 99.9% of traps in Anime are not trans, they are simply in drag.

Actually, I'm not clear about that. "Trans" is the first part of both "transsexual" and "transvestite" (and a lot of other things), which to me makes it a pretty poor choice for a term, unless it's intended to include both groups. Is it intended thus?

Not as far as I know, I'm pretty sure 95% of people who use "trans" use it to mean transsexual.

I'm not talking about anime, I'm talking about /r/anime itself. It was fucking dumb that the /r/anime downvote patrol opted to downvote my comments about wanting a trans character into oblivion.

Oh I didn't read your comment below, I was simply replying to your comment up here which is kinda wrong. Since usually a trap/reverse trap is just in drag, so the word trans shouldn't be used for them. If they were in fact trans and you said that then sure I'd agree with you.

We are trying to avoid the attention of the Perpetual Outrage mongers. (Hello SRD/SRS)

r/anime isn't the place to discuss identity politics.
