Heiii!! so a few months ago when i was in astros twitch chat and she was doing an AMA segment while waiting for something during SDMP, and i asked something along the lines of "are u a gooner or a tr**ner" as like a silly joke question
(the censor stars stand for o btw, its just a portmantoe of trans and goon)
for context im literally a trans gal myself, and i didnt rlly understand that word tr**n as being a slur at the time it sounds very unserious and goofy to me, i didnt have the context at all for it being a hurtful mean word like that cuz i had only seen it used in these unserious contexts by trans ppl themselves before and it doesnt clock as a slur at all just from the sound
but obviously astro banned me for that, and i think its rlly important to not allow ppl who think its okay to just say slurs to others like that in ur community, but i didnt have the context at all and if i knew how it was used i wouldve never said it!! i dont know where else to go abt this blahh, i hope if its okay and i promise to be nice that i maybe had a itty bitty chance of being unbanned its completely okay if not tho, it wasnt an approriate thing of me to ask at all!!
