How do you feel about the term "futa"? (lemm.ee)

Do you think it's purely hateful or do you think it has some merit in certain contexts?

Personally I think it is a transphobic and dehumanizing term that objectifies and sexualizes trans women based on our anatomy, that should never be used in any context, but I'd love to hear what other people think.

A disgusting dehumanizing term that views human beings as objects of sexual desire. I know the situation you're describing. I really hope @ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone deals with that person, as they do not belong on a queer friendly instance like this one.

Make no mistake, coming into a trans community asking for "Futa girls" labels you as a highly suspected chaser. It will not lead to anything good. I have banned that shithead from !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone permanently for it.

Thank you for the ping. I was only partially familiar with the term so I didn't issue a ban on the original report. Now that I have educated myself on how that term is used and the objectification and sexualisation inherent in it, I've issued an instance ban.

You're welcome, I'm glad I could be of help.
