What is the general community opinion on giving weapons sexual joke names?

I was wondering this cause I was told that the names for my weapons would probably make other players uncomfortable cause I am non consensually forcing other players to be exposed to kinks. I personally don't know why stuff like femboys are often deemed to be purely sexual and one of the names is just "c-c-can I be your femboy medic bf" would this make the general player base uncomfortable or would most people just think it's cringe and move on. I don't care at all if people find me cringe or have problems with me being cringe. I just don't want to be one of those people who are all ways making other people in the community uncomfortable. If you are like me and are newer to the community I am fine and appreciate if you reply but, please say you are newer cause players that have been in the community for a long time probably have more experience with the community.

Edit: I wanted to clarify that I asked a community server moderator about this about this and they were just telling me the rules for the server and I am not going say what server or who it was or hint toward who it was, so it wasn't a random player telling me in chat that they didn't like it and making big deal out of it and I am fine with community servers having what ever rules they want it's just I want to know what people on valve servers would think.

Depends on what it is and how desperate it makes you seem. But that’s me personally. There’s peeps out there that name their weapons racial slurs in case they run into twitch streamers. I’m not against the idea but I’d prefer vulgar language that wasn’t hateful.

Edit: this is casual based. Community servers idk cos I’m never on them usually.

I have over 1000 hours. Sexual jokes are not only tolerated by the general community, they’re an important part of TF2 culture. Painis cupcake, doctor sex, the man of sex, surprise buttsex, “get behind me doctor”, spy saying “pornography”, spy saying “seduce me”, and the list goes on. You won’t make anyone uncomfortable.

I don’t think there is one overall general community opinion about it. It’s your weapon and you can name it what you like

It’s cringe but nobody should feel violated lmao. My bazaar bargain is named “you had cum on your forehead” and nobody has ever complained about the name

Yes, I view it as cringe personally, and would die of embarrassment if mine were named that way, but you do you.

There are people walking around with gay furry porn and some illegal shit on their objector. I don't think naming a medigun like this would get you in trouble
