I’ve ran into cis women on Grindr. My mom called them the super non-PC term “fag hags.” That’s the bad F word for those on Lemmy World cuz I’m pretty sure that word is censored on that instance.
Lemmy.world censors only “faggot” and the N word. Lemmy.ml censors “bitch” and various slurs. I believe their users can still see comments with these words in (?), though the censored words are removed if they post them themselves
Lemmy instances are able to censor words; it can’t be set per community. When viewing a comment from an instance that censors some word, that word will be replaced with “removed”. This applies to both comments sent by users of that instance, and comments sent by external users.
The non-offensive word I have seen used for a person who seeks out relationships with homosexual people despite being the opposite gender is “beard”. This is derived from the fact that it helps the male in the relationship present outwardly as a “real man” with a “normal relationship” in settings/societies where homosexuality is not considered acceptable to one degree or another. Also, sometimes homosexual couples of opposite genders will “beard” for each other in a mutually-beneficial dynamic.
edit: it seems spoiler text doesn’t work right on a lot of mobile apps, including voyager. Anyways: watch For All Mankind. It’s great.

My parents had some friends who did exactly this for Prom since every attendee was required to have an opposite-sex date. They met the requirement to go through the front door then promptly split and found their actual date for the night (or their friend group if they were single)

I’ve heard that and fruit flies.
I like that one. lol
I’m on Lemmy World and I can see it too.
“I’ll light a fag everytime I think of you.”
“Oh Buster, you’re such a pussy”

So they censor removed and not fag. That makes zero sense lol.
Hmm
Am I missing something? I have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about.
Is there a slur somewhere in this post or the comment section? And TIL that Lemmy communities can censor words. I’m from blahaj.zone btw

Blahaj doesn’t censor any slurs
feddit.uk doesn’t censor anything at the moment, because I accidentally broke the slur regex.
Normally, users from censored instances can still see rude words, they just get removed “in flight” if they try to post anywhere.
Firmly believe we should ban all mention of Scunthorpe from the instance.
