Marketing.

I've never been comfortable with terms like 'shemale', tranny', or even 'chicks with dicks', but in the industry it seems to work at the cash register.

I'm actually somewhat surprised that I've gotten my business associates to eschew the use of such derogatory terms in our conversations. Something about the way I winced everythime I heard the words, perhaps.

I never liked the term "shemale". Tranny is seen as offensive by some. I don't think it is unless it's used in a bad way. But shemale is 100% offensive in everyway. That's implying that transexuals are just feminine men and reinforces that idea to the masses.

I'll tell you whats wrong, that fuckin keyboard you're using, you need to take that back to the manufacturer and beat the constructor's ass

seriously.......................... chicks getting paid to do a scene aren't trying to correct a producer much on terminology unless they are big time in the industry
