  1. I suppose I should ask here: is a joke along the lines of "Transgender does not mean someone who is a robot in disguise" in any way offensive? The rest of the slide is entirely factual and informative but if I can swooce that joke in there it'd help me a bunch

      1. @bobo me either but it'll undermine the entire presentation if there is something

    2. @tiffany Do you know if there's anyone in the class who might be sensitive to a joke like that? Your audience is important with these kinds of things.

      1. @northernnarwhal I do not know if there's anyone in the class who might be sensitive to a joke like that. They're all open minded about the topic at hand though so I feel like a little wordplay would be fine if the rest of it is serious and hopefully enlightening

        1. @tiffany In that case you should be okay, as long as it's conveyed that you are just joking you should probably be good to go

          1. @northernnarwhal It is sandwiched between pretty heavy subject matter so I think it'll be clear
