Filter transandrophobia and transmisandry as tags the way you do for terf stuff I am no longer asking.

Transmisogyny is a term because it describes the overlap of preexisting transphobia and misogyny and explains how both those axis' of oppression overlap when it comes to trans women. Androphobia/misandry are not real because men are not systematically oppressed the way women are and any example you can come up about "misandry" is literally just misogyny negatively effecting men too. I need you people to start using your fucking heads and stop giving this ground to people.

The term transmisogyny was not invented because people wanted a Special, More Severe Oppression to be oppressed by, it was because there is overlap between these systematic forms of oppression that is worth exploring and analysing in our culture. The same way misogynoir is a term. There is a reason misogyblanc is not a fucking term, because white people are not systematically oppressed the way black people are and it would be insane to imply they are to, what, describe the hardships of white women? Transphobia is not a diluted term, it is not a lesser version, you can just. use that. you do not have to invent the fake concept of misandry to discuss your experiences and it is irresponsible to do so, quite frankly. I feel like I'm going insane here.

Transmisogyny is real because transphobia and misogyny are both real, tangible forms of oppression that have systematic repercussions. Misandry/androphobia is not, and any examples of it are, again, literally just examples of misogyny working against men. Men are thought of to be less important parents because women, misogynistically, are thought to have an inherent maternal trait that keeps them from being given the same opportunities in the work place. Men are not allowed to show emotion as much because showing emotion is thought of to be a feminine trait. Men are expected to fulfil certain gender roles because women are, systematically, thought to be inherently less capable and need men to support them under patriarchy. Am I going crazy? Has everyone else lost the fucking plot????
