futanari (is there an english word for this?)

Depending on what you mean by futanari, 'hermaphrodite' or 'shemale' are common, though the latter is almost surely slang (and checking what Google has to say on the subject is almost surely NSFW).

The latter is a slur.

Well, by that link, both "transvestite" and "hermaphrodite" (NTM "it") were on the list of slurs. I think it was just indicated as a slur for transsexual people, not inherently a slur.

I'll just keep calling it futa. It's the only word for that mode of being that I have not seen used offensively.

I must say that I haven't seen it used offensively either. Nor, for that matter, have I seen the sun rise && false.

(ie. Using the word futa may not be optimal for communicating object level content with people who speak English.)
