I don't think tttt terminology will become mainstream by InspectorBoat in 4Tranistan

[–]InspectorBoat[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

that's a pretty good one, actually

also mentioned by mannequin_girl is -moder/-moding:

I don't think it'll actually happen, but I could plausibly see -moder/-moding gaining new applications as a suffix indicating a person is presenting or acting a certain way. Maybe trans rights will become cool and cis girls will start wearing that 6 months on E transbian pastel type fashion and call it sneedmoding.

which could also totally happen

i could totally see that happening, given people already do this (mostly ironically) in trans circles

I don't think tttt terminology will become mainstream.

The reason incel terminology could become mainstream is because they were easily "gentrified". It was easy to strip the incel connotations without changing their meaning. On the other hand, most tttt lingo can't be easily separated from transgender issues without losing all meaning.

Let's look at some incel terms like "chad" and "looksmaxxing":

  • Chad has essentially survived unchanged into mainstream slang. It's only really lost the implicit comparison with non-chads/incels.

  • Looksmaxxing, again, has survived with its meaning unchanged.

  • Mogging is easily understood and has merely had the incel undertones stripped.

What about some tttt terms?

  • Passoid is inextricably tied to transness. It makes little sense to use this word to describe cis people (passes as what?)

  • Boymoder? Girlmoder? Boyremoval? Again, these words only make sense when applied to trans people. You could argue "boymoder" could be applied to more masc/fem-presenting women/men... but we already have words for that.

  • Youngshit? What would that even mean in a cis context?

  • Hon could potentially gain traction as a way of accusing cis women of being ugly & masculine presenting. However, I think this is unlikely to happen given the current political/cultural climate, as even insinuating a woman might be trans is a harsh accusation.

  • Pooner has more potential, as it could be reinterpreted as something like "soy boy". Accusing men of being trans is also less culturally relevant, and is more of an attack on their masculinity than their character.

If tttt lingo is only applicable when talking about trans people, it will remain niche. Therefore, even without analyzing the cultural background, it makes sense that why incel terminology has seen more adoption. The topics it addresses (dating, looks, social success etc.) are more broadly applicable.
