Man if I had a nickel for every time I've heard someone explain "nEtOrArE cOmEs FrOm ThE rOoT wOrD nEtO, aNd A mOrE dIrEcT tRaNsLaTiOn WoUlD bE 'sTeAlInG tHrOuGh SeX'". No one cares about the literal definition. This reads the same as people that jump in whenever there's a shemale character that gets referred to as a futa, saying "Um, actually a futanari would imply that a character is a hermaphrodite, and this character doesn't have a vagina, so they're actually transgender since they have a penis but no vagina.
"
