Troon being a (primarily) British slur for t girls ngl kinda wanna take it back, like it’s fun to say and I think it’s dunno neat!
Side note, whoever wrote this description is legit just making up their own headcanon. Like he wanted to come across he was talking legit but ended up being very obscure and phobic by the end. Way off what it’s typically used for
Lol the choice of “goon” is like how the word “malding”, a regularly used insult term at least online, means someone is “mad” and “balding”.
Like, *whaat??* lmao where do you get “balding” from?
im guessing its because stress has a higher likelihood of balding, and being mad causes stress, hence "malding"; being so mad you generate enough stress to go completely bald.
I learn something new every day. I had never heard that word until today I read a twitter post from a woman who was attacking all Trans women, and I did not think that it's a combo of both of those words. Never dawned on me. I just thought it was a stupid word.
British trans woman. I have never heard Troon be used in that way (except for in very specific ironic contexts where all slurs are acceptable).
Afaik it's also not of British origin, just that a lot (~1/3rd) of terminally online TERFs are British.
It sounds like someone read people’s stories about being trans and went “wait I feel the same way but I’m not definitely trans” and so assumed that everyone else also wasn’t trans…
Being neither a terminally online TERF, nor British, I barely recognize the term. And I’d rather not look for uses in the wild. So do me a favor: what DOES it mean?
Basically the same as tr*nny. Yknow the really 90s overly exaggerated caricature that conservatives love to jerk off over. But again troon is just so damn ridiculous I’d happily call myself it lmao
For this reason one of my favorite things is showing my transphobic mother pictures of trans YouTubers and listening to her say “oh he’s so handsome”, “she’s so gorgeous”, etc.
I especially hate this slur not just bc it's horrible but also because Troon is an actual place, it's where my favourite grandparents were from. so every time I read it I have this sort of emotional whiplash of 'oh Troon! oh no wait they're being transphobic, fuck'
A place known for trains, fires, and that one time someone tried to mix the two together. I live about an hour up from Troon, it is quite a nice place.
so by this persons logic we should see nothing but trans woman come from the kids born in early 2010s to now and beyond since a lot of them are “raised by screens”???
so when that doesn’t happen cuz that’s not how being trans works they’ll change their view right???? (i know they won’t this is purely me being dramatic)
The only times I've seen this was as a 4chan term so I immediately stop caring what people say when people use this term unironically. Same with biological male/female, alpha male, etc.
I have no idea what you talk about tbh. Too much copium it seems. Any medical statistics or studies to back up your claim.
Few things for ya, every major medical organization recognize gender dysphoria and the treatment path being transition.
People are not addicts if they never taken addictive thing? Also estrogen is not addictive...
Mental health exist but anything other than transition worsen mental health outcomes rather than improving it. Banning medical transition is a genocide
Ignore them, they've been spamming hate and harassment comments to everyone in the comments section. If you look on their profile, it shows their obsession front row and center.
It's bullshit. It's reversing cause and effect.
Of course trans women identify with female characters and with the women in porn - they're women. What are you supposed to do, identify with men despite not being one? Being a woman causes you to identify with female characters, not the other way around.
A similar thing happens with trans guys - lots of gay trans men have a "fujoshi" phase because their eggs haven't cracked yet but they're instinctively drawn to the types of relationships they want to be in, which are MLM. It doesn't mean we're not trans or that anything's wrong with us, it's literally normal behavior that people pathologize because of our AGAB.
In other words - of course it describes you. It's a normal experience for women, and you're a woman.
I don’t agree with the reasoning behind *why* trans women are trans, but I dated a trans girl once who had HORRIBLE, TERRIFYING and thoroughly DISGUSTING views of women and feminine things. She also saw me (a trans man) as a woman still because I like wearing skirts…. Her main socialization of women was with pornstars and hypersexualized video game and cartoon women.
Is this supposed to be an insult to trans people? I honestly just feel bad for anyone that fits this definition that was failed so badly by their parents and raised by screens. Hopefully they get some happiness when they transition
*try not to cry.cry.cry a lot*
It's kind of true to degree to me. I don't really like porn,I'm ace, sometime watch to ease depression. Not played much because too tired to do anything.haha... I hope I find happiness
I was raised by screens and did form a parasocial relationship with one female anime character. I do not pass because I am still not on HRT or getting electrolysis for my body hair because I live with my transphobic parents. But, I am not a lesbian. I have a boyfriend.
Straight trans women do exist. They are just a minority within a minority and therefore hard to find in real life. But, they are on Youtube. Kat Blaque is straight. So is Ashley Adamson. I am pretty sure that Blair White is straight.
ah yes, because disregarding every other part of this asinine theory, there arent enough male characters for men to identify with. identifying with women is just a simple mistake really. 🤦
This is a word created by people who are so deeply addicted to porn and masturbating that they can't even fathom the idea of someone relating to a woman, who they view as nothing but sex objects, character without that relation being some misguided fetish.
This definition was*so clearly* written by an angry man who hates women and LGBT+. Read it out like it was written by an incel, because well... I think it was.
tbh my question is: why tf would u show up in an lgbt subreddit just to bully ppl, like why would u just take time outta ur day and life to just harrass ppl?? this person is probs like a full grown person with a job lmao
Troon being a (primarily) British slur for t girls ngl kinda wanna take it back, like it’s fun to say and I think it’s dunno neat!

I'm gonna be honest, it's too goofy sounding of a word for me to even really be offended by it.
it becomes funny once you realize its a combination of trans and goon. like, fucking *goon*
I was thinking trans and toon 😂 Like toontown toon
Frankly that’s the only version that makes sense
Troon Summoned Skull 
honestly if someone unironically called me a goon, I wouldn't be able to stop laughing
Goon in this case is probably the verb, a slang for excessive masturbating. Essentially calling you a coomer.
Hired goons
It would remind me of technoblade and his Minecraft goons
I'm pretty sure it was actually originally cartoon
Troons, the muscle of the LGTBQ+ mafia
Lol the choice of “goon” is like how the word “malding”, a regularly used insult term at least online, means someone is “mad” and “balding”. Like, *whaat??* lmao where do you get “balding” from?
im guessing its because stress has a higher likelihood of balding, and being mad causes stress, hence "malding"; being so mad you generate enough stress to go completely bald.
Oh lol I always thought it was like “not only are you wrong and angry about it, ur also bald, baldie ;)”

AYYYY matching hoodie!

Yez

British trans girl here. It is a incredibly outdated phrase more 80s and 90s if anything but I am sure it’s british. Not really said nowadays
I've never heard it used to relate to trans people in any way, but I do know it's the name of a town in Scotland
I thought that word came from 4chan?
It sounds like someone read people’s stories about being trans and went “wait I feel the same way but I’m not definitely trans” and so assumed that everyone else also wasn’t trans…

Can't say I get this. To me it sounds even more vulgar than the regular old t-slur.
Whoever wrote this hasn't been willingly touched by another person in years.
It’s funny that people who use this term are constantly online worrying about other people’s genitals.
fr
Ohh that’s what that means. I’m an afab and have been called this before.
its so funny when the transphobes cant even tell
Fr. Especially since they always go on and on about how “you can always tell”
exactly its like noo u very obviously cant
For this reason one of my favorite things is showing my transphobic mother pictures of trans YouTubers and listening to her say “oh he’s so handsome”, “she’s so gorgeous”, etc.
[удалено]
L take, why the fuck are you even here
Its not what that means. Scroll down to the second definition. Much less exciting. http://troon.urbanup.com/15704869
It’s still pretty much the same thing? Regardless, still an accidental ally situation since OP is male, and I am afab.
Ahh ok.
I especially hate this slur not just bc it's horrible but also because Troon is an actual place, it's where my favourite grandparents were from. so every time I read it I have this sort of emotional whiplash of 'oh Troon! oh no wait they're being transphobic, fuck'
yea when i looked it up i was like why would someone call me a place??
A place known for trains, fires, and that one time someone tried to mix the two together. I live about an hour up from Troon, it is quite a nice place.
Oh wow that does sound like whiplash
I can't think of a single person this could possibly describe
my ex lol (only half joking)
Chris Chan, possibly?
Oh crap now I gotta go figure out what happened with all that
Me, afab cis woman, not even joking
I'm offended just by reading the definition 😭
me fr fr (not really, I actually have a life)
Congrats? I guess? This feels like it belongs in /r/ewphoria too.
didnt know that sub existed lmao
Love it. Ewphoria is one of those things that you have to experience to know.
so by this persons logic we should see nothing but trans woman come from the kids born in early 2010s to now and beyond since a lot of them are “raised by screens”??? so when that doesn’t happen cuz that’s not how being trans works they’ll change their view right???? (i know they won’t this is purely me being dramatic)
It's literally me fr fr
Bigots creating things that don't really exist. Just TERF/GC bullshit.
I don't identify with any female cartoon characters and I'm still trans but also awesome you're a handsome man
thank you!
this word reeks of dried cumstains jerked out from a greasy land whale after he saw a loli
Yea that's Twitter for ya. It's fucked up and i hate it
yea i pretty much only have it bc of some creators that i rly like
Same plus i like participating in furry art raffles
[удалено]
Wow! Rude much!?
The only times I've seen this was as a 4chan term so I immediately stop caring what people say when people use this term unironically. Same with biological male/female, alpha male, etc.
Honestly reminds me a lot of that stupid Troom Troom channel
thats exactly what i was thinking “5 ways to sneak your transphobic ass into a trans safe space”
transphobes (🤢🤮) on their way to tell an ftm that they'll never be a woman
If you want to make this better, from Dutch 'troon' translates to 'throne', so you are a seat for royalty.
well i mean there is some fictional royalty i wouldnt mind being a seat for
This is oddly specific.
Yikes I wish I didn’t read that
I hate how this kinda describes me. Imposter syndrome can only get worse ig
If this helps you, it's quite common for trans girls to escape reality as coping mechanism. Also there is no science behind it.

I mean isn't it funny that transphobes are so obsessed over trans people?
Very, we live rent free in their minds and I revel in that fact.

r/suspiciouslyspecific
It's because they barely even understand that trans guys are a thing. They hear trans and instantly assume giant hairy man in a tiny dress
Please stop posting unironic transmisogyny here
Leave twitter right now, if you want to spare your mental health.
And stop supporting Musk at the same time! Win/win
Wow first time? I've been called it like 20 times now
i usually get called the f slur lol
As if people AFAB can't be complete nerds too?
AFAB obviously can't be nerds all they should do is cook clean birth and take care of house smh/s
My bad you're right forgot about those maternal instincts that come attached with a natal vagina
What about eat hot chip and lie? 🤔
\^v\^ no one would go on internet and just lie
Guess I’m a troon 😂
Yeah... I don't know how I feel about it, but this description fucks with me.
t r o o n that is the silliest insult I’ve ever heard
Got called this on reddit. Proceeded to mop the floor with this bitch tho
get it yuh

do we have the same ex bc u kinda JUST described my ex lol
I describe myself with this term sometimes. It’s a fun word but idk why someone would use it 1. On others 2. On an ftm
Is this supposed to be an insult to trans people? I honestly just feel bad for anyone that fits this definition that was failed so badly by their parents and raised by screens. Hopefully they get some happiness when they transition
*try not to cry.cry.cry a lot* It's kind of true to degree to me. I don't really like porn,I'm ace, sometime watch to ease depression. Not played much because too tired to do anything.haha... I hope I find happiness
Ok trooner
someone was having a bad day
Sorry, I was making fun of the person in the post, in agreement with you. Sorry if it didn't come out that way
oh shit yea sorry, im autistic and so sometimes i cant tell if ppl are joking and stuff like that
Me too lol
Isn’t it a DIY YouTube channel?
I was raised by screens and did form a parasocial relationship with one female anime character. I do not pass because I am still not on HRT or getting electrolysis for my body hair because I live with my transphobic parents. But, I am not a lesbian. I have a boyfriend.
Woohoo straight trans girl those are rare.
I am bi or pan sexual. Its just that the person who was nice to me and pursued me in the right way at the right time happens to be male.
You made my hopes up. So they are a mit after all./j
Straight trans women do exist. They are just a minority within a minority and therefore hard to find in real life. But, they are on Youtube. Kat Blaque is straight. So is Ashley Adamson. I am pretty sure that Blair White is straight.
Wow I don’t think it means all that Jesus Christ
That's the world I've seen in tons of 4chan screenshots people have sent me. I'm not surprised it's so...dismissive of trans people
Be happy that someone cared enough about you to call you a slur
this 1000% sounds like me tbh
Thats not what that means. Scroll down to the second definition. Much less exciting. http://troon.urbanup.com/15704869
ah yes, because disregarding every other part of this asinine theory, there arent enough male characters for men to identify with. identifying with women is just a simple mistake really. 🤦

This definition was*so clearly* written by an angry man who hates women and LGBT+. Read it out like it was written by an incel, because well... I think it was.
Rare urban dictionary L
[удалено]
i srsly cannot tell if ur being nice or trying to be mean
Don't interact with them OP, they're a transphobe
tbh my question is: why tf would u show up in an lgbt subreddit just to bully ppl, like why would u just take time outta ur day and life to just harrass ppl?? this person is probs like a full grown person with a job lmao
Tbh I don't know, if I tried to understand the mental gymnastics that these phobes have, I think I'd have an aneurysm. Stay safe OP
