a tran, used as a term of endearment from one trans girl to another trans girl.
"
hey fish, let's swim over to the G.L.O.S.S. show already"
"ya sure, i can'
t wait to make that pit into a fish bowl"
evolved from a hooker code term for cis women
sex workers (1970s) aka girls who sell vagina (fish-scented junk) as opposed to
ass. later referring to trans women (1980s), especially asians swimming in
white scenes, who look so much like cis women that for all intents and purposes are cis. later (briefly), referring to girls who've had bottom surgery and are card-carrying members of the vaginosis crew. reclaimed circa
2016 to mean all trans women, including bricks, as a fuck-you to the
gay male chaser
scene; now considered beyond the pale when used to signal a person's genitalia.
used awkwardly by gay men to refer to cis-passing drag queens because they look so much like a trans woman. like when
rich white boys call each other hood on the golf course.
used pejoratively by gay men to refer to trans men at the club in a desperate attempt to self-affirm their trans-exclusionary homosexuality, in the same way that str8 men think touching a dick will instantly turn them
gay (as if they weren't
gay already).
