...from an article.

My post wasn't even malicious, far from it. I was confused and disputed asking why what I posted was offensive. The response:

Intentionally misgendering someone is offensive and is considered hate speech against transgendered persons.

Just wow, reason #98254 this site is dying.

That's odd. I've seen so many blatant transphobic comments go unmodded. Maybe someone doesn't like you?

I was commenting on said article. I actually don't even remember if it was an article, it could have just been a story from a poster.

Your posting that link brings up a good point. I hope they can rewrite the ToS to adjust the wording to say "trans people" or "transgender people"

The community and some organizations have widely denounced the usage of the word "transgendered", as its a phrase that essentially puts the bulk of the concept on the activity of transitioning (hormones, surgery) as a form of validation of sorts of ones 'legit' trans status

It would be a small change on behalf of the site, and idk if trans people here really even care or have spoken about it before so it might not even be my place to bring it up with those in power

also, using "transgender" as a noun. why would anyone think that's ok?

Quoted an offensive post then? Go back and mark that post you quoted I guess and that's all you can do besides be sure to look at posts better in the future.

Article was about an obvious transgender, and the article made it blatantly so. Even reading the header would have told you that it was a MtF transgender. f***, the TOPIC TITLE made it clear that it was talking about a post-op MtF transgender.

You guys should really make it known that using the wrong pronoun is considered hate speech, calling her a he was an honest mistake as you probably saw my post wasn't hateful.

Doesn't need to be hateful to be moddable.

Oh god, a noun. Well, at least it wasn't used as a verb, or... god help us... past participle.

it's an adjective. A quality, not an entity in and of itself. referring to people by one of their qualities is dehumanizing - like referring to black people as "the blacks"

So, you're saying that, while the site hands out mods for the wrong pronoun, the site in and of itself is using offensive terminology?

Sounds about par for Game FAQs.
