Look, it's just...while I understand that "trap" is the "official otaku term" for a guy that looks like a cute girl, it's kinda insulting. It's pretty clear that while most who use that term don't mean offense, the people who coined the term don't care.

I mean, seriously? Are there even guys that purposely try to look like cute girls for the express purpose of tricking straight guys into being with them? Can't they just wear what they want to, look like what they want to, and go out with who they want to? If the guy who asks them out doesn't know they're a guy, is he supposed to tell him? Know how often that goes over well? As for "they should know the other guy thinks they're a girl", well, the other party sometimes knows they're a guy.

Just saying that term conveys that such people aren't people and gives little to no sympathy for them. Also, it kinda implies that a guy has to dress like a girl and "trick" guys in order to get another guy.

And here comes the people who will come in and ignore me saying "you're reading too much into this", "that isn't what they meant", or "PC police telling us what we're allowed to say". Yes, I've had all of this said to me when I go on this particular rant. 1) Doesn't make what I said any less true, 2) I am aware of that, but still kinda insulting, albeit unintentional, and 3) it's called "not being a jerk".

And watch, a certain admin will delete this for being "off-topic", despite being a response to a thread and other off-topic stuff being undeleted. It isn't being mean, but educating.
