Shemale Pornstar Wants You To Stop Using The Word Shemale

http://www.xojane.com/sex/chelsea-po...-slur-petition

Quote:
I am entirely for people of an oppressed community to re-claim words but in the case of the term ?Shemale? it has nothing to do with trans women reclaiming it but largely cis men running these sites with little regard for how trans communities view it. The biggest user of the term is on the site Shemaleyum.com (Grooby Productions) where you see the term used 17 times alone on the main page.
Seventeen times, guys. Seventeen.

This is the first I've heard of shemale being a slur. What do you think nikki99?

As long as consumers continue searching for the term, producers & marketers will continue using it.

Something is wrong with Chelsea...i suspect she was rejected by grooby.

I do not believe she is a pornstar. Just a disgruntled twink.

can changes like that even be made? In porn gay ALWAYS means 2 guys, interracial is ALWAYS a black man with a white woman, lesbian is usually deemed straight content, threesomes are always 2 girls and 1 guy where tag team is always 2 guys on one girl and everyone knows what midget porn is but most would be too freaked out to click on something labelled littleperson porn--for good reason.

traditionally marketing isn't supposed to be offensive and as politically correct as possible, but with porn I think being at least partially offensive is part of what makes it sell wouldn't you say?

I don't think you are going to ever find a great deal of sensitivity in adult marketing, offense is part of the package. Besides as far as I know most sites are built around what users are searching for, not what progressives would like them to say. I doubt most of the people who google "shemale" use that term in conversation. I don't use it but I don't google it either, just not my thing.

I have few good alternatives: "female with penis" or "fempenis", or "castrated male" or "castramale".

Tranny it is then.

Anyone removing shemale from their keywords does so at their own google peril though.

To be honest, you lost me at "Shemale Pornstar Wants..."

If you want to be normal and fit in then perhaps you should start with...BEING NORMAL.

The term shemale is so entrenched now on the internet that the complaints from a few disgruntled 'trans-women' is not going to change it.

I predict they're just going to have to suck it up and live with it.

Many didn't want to live with it so they cut it off.

I think that the word Tranny is considered offensive too.

Tgirl or TS are more acceptable.

The words shemale, tranny and trap were banned 3 years ago in reddits largest shemale porn related subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Tgirls/comments/n0e1a/note_about_new_guidelines_for_rtgirls_please_read/

Although the second largest (http://reddit.com/r/shemales) has not banned those words.

Within the porn industry, nothing should be offensive. Either be involved and deal with whatever names are created for the niche, or get out of it.
