A lot of you may have been wondering “why the asterisk?”, or at the very least, searching in vain for a footnote below.
We here at the Institute for Twanzphobic Studies (ITS) have put our best scientificy people onto the task of cracking the asterisk. Using the latest Extra Scientificy Speshul Equipment (ESSE™), we can at last reveal the results of our findings.

Of course! It all makes sense now! It’s not really an asterisk, it’s a snowflake, to indicate the speshulness of speshul snowflake jenduh! Because jenduh is soooo speshul, it over-rides all reality and common sense, for example, ignoring the fact that the dirty great honking tranny looks like a dude.
Waaay to blend in dude! The puckering at the front is the sign of a real laydee
Our linguistic team at the Institute for Twanzphobic Studies have also been hard at work, and have determined the proper shortform for the trans snowflake: trans*flake.
But wait! There’s moar!
Our team at the Institute for Twanzphobic Studies also discovered something lacking in the twanzjenduh flag.
Much better! The pink speshul snowflake motif dominates the design, because all proper laydees like pink!
Can you please give us a reading list? I am really far behind in my transphobic studies.
Hilarious. One of your best.

Is that Liam Neeson?
Why do you have to write/spell as if you are trying to sound like a three year old?
I don’t believe that anyone held a gun to your head and forced you to read the blog? Ciao.
