    ^ beat me to it. I'm sure not everyone finds it offensive, but some people certainly do, so watch your choice of words.

    Regardless, welcome to EC.

    I was going to comment on the "Tranny" thing too, but didn't want to come off as rude. No hard feelings but most of us, myself included, do find the term offensive on some level. Like I said, I'm not going to harp on you but most of us prefer, Trans, Transgendered, or even better just being referred to as the gender we identify as. Hope I haven't overstepped myself here :slight_smile:

    Really? Tranny? Not only that but he says "ladies/gents/trannys" implying that trans folks are neither men nor women. Awesome, totally awesome ...

    Yeah, the "tranny" thing is pretty offensive... Welcome to the site, but I would recommend using some more appropriate language in regards to trans people the future.

    Let's try and cut him a bit of slack. Yes, you and I know what he said was offensive, but he's brand new and I doubt it was his intention. I'll be honest, when I first came to EC, I don't think I knew that "tranny" was an offensive term. I'm sure after he spends some time on EC, he'll learn to phrase things in a more polite and proper way.
