Why do you guys type the same intro-level stuff about transes to each other over and over? Seems like you're all on the same page so you could skip establishing the basic concepts every third page?

If you look at preserved Greek graffiti from Pompeii, you'll notice that men being fags and dressing/acting like when has been a joke for literally thousands of years. You'll need more than one generation, hashtags, and a bunch of molested kids with daddy issues to change it.

Because it's fucking funny to laugh at those freaks. You can go literally anywhere else if you don't like it. The vast majority of todays Internet is nice and sanitized of such hurtful transphobia and hate speech. :(

R-slur suppression is the lowest of all suppressions. Take 'em to the cleaners, Matthew!

Pompeii was originally developed as a city by Greeks, as was most of the surrounding area, and really only became majority Latin-cultured after the Social War when they lost self-rule, became a Roman colony, and Sulla started allotting land there to his discharged veterans. By the time of the eruption of Vesuvius, Pompeii had been majority Latin for a few generations, but there were a large number of Greek slaves resident there. It was also the mark of an educated Roman to be able to speak, read, and write Greek. I haven't studied Pompeian graffiti, but it would be very surprising if there wasn't Greek graffiti to be found.

A trans woman professor once said to their class, "trans women are women". All the students were shocked and stunned until one student stood up and said, "That's bullshit, faggot. YWNBAW. Lmao." .

Everybody stood up and applauded. Incidentally, the teacher's name was Adolf Hitler and the student turned out to be Hitler, too.

I hope this answers your question.

And more importantly, there's nothing more Greek than making graffiti about fucking men in the ass even if the graffiti is in Latin.
 
I've posted this before but:
In Macedonia, after Alexander the Great, they were still a big enough deal the Persians didn't want to fuck with them as they started moving west accross the Bosporus and two agreed to a peace treaty. The generals and nobles were unhappy at the treaty, and didn't like being subservient to the Persians and blamed the King's fuck boy who was of his advisors, for convincing the King into taking the deal. So they organized into a mob one party night at the royal palace and killed the King's favored bussy.

Now I care to remind you, in the days before birth control or a real solid understanding of the underlying mechanisms of human reproduction, the only safe way to have sex with a woman was to fuck & suck a dude instead. All of the generals and officers had their own side fuckboys, and everyone knew it - because while there was nothing wrong with fucking a dude, it was incredibly disgraceful to be the party being penetrated. Only sissy faggots took it in the ass, alpha chads were the pitchers. Of course if both guys going off to fuck were Alpha Chads, the only way they could remain Alpha Chads was if no one ever found out who took it up the ass.

This background is important, because a group of Generals and Nobles - again, each of them with thier own Bussy, some of them were each other's bussy - killed one of the King's advisors while calling him (effectively) a Cocksucking Faggot.

To summarize:
Even in a society that had normalized men having sex with with other men, "You are a cocking sucking faggot" was an insult and no one liked mincing faggots to the point they killed a guy for being a faggot.
