"Faggot" or "Fag"

This word is a homophobic slang and is very offensive. Don't use it. Some People use it as a joke and think It's "funny". It's not funny whatsoever!



"Tranny" and/or "dyke"

These words are not funny. They are also homophobic slangs. NEVER use them. It's a form of discrimination against the LGBTQ+ community



"Do you have a pen!s or a vag!na?"

This is my second biggest pet peeve. What genitalia you have does not matter. Be whoever the hell you wanna be! Some people think asking a trans individual what parts they have is not rude and a joke. Some transgender people are really sensitive about that topic. Don't ask them. If they bring up the topic, don't laugh.



Using gay as a "Insult"

Using the word gay as an insult is never okay. Being homosexual is very hard. Please never use it as an insult. It isn't okay.It is also discrimination against the LGBTQ+ Community.
