adj

Etymology: From trans- + misogynistic.

  1. Relating to, characteristic of, or exhibiting transmisogyny.

    […] the same masculinity at the heart of the military’s pervasive homophobia, tolerance of sexual assault, and transmisogynistic practice of court-martialing transfeminine soldiers for “cross-dressing.”

    But I am asking us to examine a comedic device that not only degrades women but also reinforces the absolutely incorrect and harmfully transmisogynistic idea that trans women are really just "men in dresses."
