    A trans fem person (born with male genitals) can in fact make a cis woman pregnant, tho some trans people may save some seamen, cause the quality may be degraded as the transition from cis man to women goes on.

    I do believe that shemale is a slur, along with ladyboy, tranny and so on, in case you didn’t know :)

        Also, the semen is just a fluid that helps move the sperm around. The sperm is what makes you pregnant.

      This is a genuine question: I would never use the word shemale because it strikes me as a slur, but I would use the word ladyboy to specifically describe the gender-bending culture of Thai bar workers because some of them do not consider themselves trans, but pursue that path for the career and lifestyle options. Is it still a slur when referring to that phenomenon in Thai culture, or is there a better word to use?
