If you mean trans woman, maybe just say trans woman? No need for weird acronyms

I am not the original commenter - though "mtf" is quite common, I believe. Maybe I am in a bubble.

No, it's quite common and less confusing than "Trans Woman" because some people not well versed in these topics will be confused by only describing the final gender.

People who use MTF sound like this weirdo, just fyi

So if that's your goal, I guess keep doing it

Yes it's better to just call them men, because that's what they are.

The term "mtf" is just as incorrect, because none of these males are becoming female, nor is it even possible for most species - including humans and other mammals.

Your assertions of bigotry for terms you personally don't like are going to fall on deaf ears.

I dunno, I said it's used a lot by bigots, then a bigot shows up and agrees with me (now flagged). If that isn't a sign a term isn't great, I don't know what is?

Judging yourself by how unscrupulous people react to you is a common pitfall - it poisons your perception of others and blinds you to yourself.

Tangentially: I was confused by the usage of the ambiguous word, "weird", as shorthand for "bigoted". I thought you were literally asking what "mtf" meant.

It's quite amusing to be called a bigot simply for pointing out how sexist it is to redefine women for the sole purpose of favoring a group of men.
