Fun fact for OP: Transvestite is not actually a slur. Magnus Hirschfeld, who invented the term, did not coin it to insult the indivisuals it described.

You may have heard people use the word 'transvestite' with an offensive tone, but the word itself does not have automatic negative connotations. It musn't be confused with 'transgender' though, as they have very different meanings.
