'''Maricón''' is a Spanish slur most commonly used against effeminate men in general (whether they are LGBTQIA+ or not) and [[transfeminine]] individuals, though it has also been used to refer to many other queer individuals regardless of their identity. It is similar to "[[F*ggot|f*g]]" and "p*ssy" in English, and as such, has been reclaimed by some of its targets. |
