  • For the outside the instance, something from the instance name would be intuitive.

    • Ds (“dees”)

    • Divs

    • Dbs (“div/dee-bees”)

    • 0s (“ohs/zees/zeros”)

    • Db0s (“div/dee-bee-ohs/zees”) which seems easiest for those all round.

    Outside the instance, I’m not sure! I like the thinking of the mate but it still seems a bit too… something

    Absolutely! Though the common usage of transgender or purely trans are more modern - it was usually referred to incorrectly or derogatory as transsexual or travestite which now are being reclaimed.

    I believe for stonewall it was reported as drag queens at the time, very much in line with your visibility and acceptance comment.




  • Is that a legitimate question?

    You are being asked to give up your nationality which until that point has been your identity and how you interact with the world.

    One of the first questions you get asked is “where are you from”, and if you can’t pass for looking and sounding like a German native then the next question is “where are you really from?”.

    It sounds quite arrogant and insincere of you to say and hope that this is not a common thought.
