I'm going to create board rules here a bit later.

For now the main rules are:

  • Don't use words such as "she male" or "ladyboy" on this forum. They can offend some people.
  • It's not a dating forum. Please don't post any ads, emails or contacts on the forum.

:?: Is there a place where a newbie can go to learn the etiquette/lingo? It's important to me that I do no harm... especially with Joie. She's so tenderhearted!

Thanks,
Venessia

How to respect a transsexual person
Transgender Terminology

Since when is 'ladyboy' as offensive term... :?: o_0 I've never encountered any issues using the word. I've always thought of it as sort of a euphemism in fact. Thai transsexuals actually prefer it. I mean, 'lady' + 'boy' - it is kinda cute when you think about it! :P
'Katoey' on the other hand is deemed somewhat disrespectful, because of the prostitution connotation that's inherent with its use.

Transsexual/TS just sounds so cold and clinical. I'd be curious to hear from an actual TS/LB/TG that considers being referred to as a 'ladyboy' offensive and the reason(s) why... :?
