FISH is a word used by trans women to describe a trans woman as very feminine- indistinguishable from a cis woman.
it was initially a slur that described
cisgender woman... it was used by men who associated the smell of a woman'
s vagina with fish. the word is not really used in this context anymore. instead, it started being used by gay men and trans women to describe drag queens that truly embodied cis femininity and eventually came to
mean what it means
today. when trans women call each other fish, they are complementing each other, by comparing each other to cis women.
"girl you're so fish you could
walk face at the ball this weekend"
"did you see that
doll that just came in? she's so fish she must have had work
done.."
