[edit] MOTTS

- Delete like MOTOS and MOTSS, except this time not even spelled right. --Trovatore 05:58, 8 October 2005 (UTC) (nominator)
- These initialisms are most commonly used in sexuality research and GLBT publications and the GLBT community. In fact, I have actually overheard the phonetically-pronounced words "motts" (s/l pots) and "motos" (s/l photos) in casual speak at bisexual rallies. Several times people see these initialisms appear on places like imdb.com, sexuality.org and thousands of other web sites and use FAQ's or search engines to discover the answer as to what the initialisms/designations stand for, so Wickipedia could serve as source for such answers. To delete these entries, clearly demonstrates prejudice, intolerance and ignorance. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TednAZ (talk • contribs) 2005-10-08 06:53:50 UTC

Merge with sexology. Qaz (talk) 06:44, 8 October 2005 (UTC)- You are correct... "MOTTS" (with two T's) was a misspelling - I concur with deleting this article, however, I do not believe the correctly-spelled MOTSS (with two S's) or MOTOS should be deleted. TednAZ 09:05, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- Then again, maybe MOTTS could stand for "Members of the Transgendered Sex" - hey, we could have created a whole new acronym here... LOL TednAZ 09:09, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is not in the business of creating new things. Uncle G 13:42, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- No people/concepts/places/events/things commonly known by this initialism. Delete. Uncle G 13:42, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete this one as a misspelling. --Metropolitan90 02:15, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete; it's just a misspelling. MCB 07:12, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/MOTOS, plus this is a mispelling. Nabla 01:28, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
