What I hate to hear the most in a trans documentary is MTFs referred to as transsexual men and FTMs referred to as transsexual women. I remember watching a trans documentary last year on the Discovery Health channel I think and I couldn't believe my ears when a FTM was referred to as a transsexual woman. Arrrggggggg! You'd think those who make these documentaries would have educated themselves on the subject of transsexuality enough to know that a transsexual woman is MTF and a transsexual man is FTM. Is this something that annoys anyone else or am I just paranoid?
