How do you feel about the term "futa"? (lemm.ee)

Do you think it's purely hateful or do you think it has some merit in certain contexts?

Personally I think it is a transphobic and dehumanizing term that objectifies and sexualizes trans women based on our anatomy, that should never be used in any context, but I'd love to hear what other people think.

I don't want to be called that, or see or hear anyone else be referred to as that. It's a very gross and single minded way to refer to another human being, because it's just the boiling down of a person into a porn category, kind of like the T slur.
