I can’t fact check your comments or their context since the post is deleted, but there’s a good chance you simply misinterpreted

the correct term is anti-transmasculinity. transmisandry is a misnomer that was coined by transmisogynistic bigots. “misandry” is not an independent concept, it is an incel dogwhistle used and popularized by the manosphere. that is why it was used. misogyny as a concept exists independent of transmisogyny, both exist and transmisogyny functions as a standalone concept.

anti-transmasculinity clearly describes what is actually being targeted: transmasculinity. we’re not being targeted for being men, but for being *trans men/transmascs*. i’m saying this as an ftm butch with a degree focusing in gender studies. i’m tired of seeing misandry/transmisandry laundered and validated as a term in queer spaces.

Are you saying that misandry literally isn’t a concept here? Obviously there’s not systemic misandry, and interpersonal misandry is far less impactful, but saying it’s not even a word doesn’t make much sense

it is a word which was coined by anti-feminists and is still used and popularized by anti-feminists. it is not actually a concept describing a system of oppression based in reality, it’s a rhetorical tool to minimize misogyny. just because there’s a word word to describe something doesn’t mean that it’s based in reality, a serious concept, and/or non-harmful.

I get what you’re saying, but anti transmasculinity and transmisandry are describing the same real phenomenon, even if thd root words have different origins. It’s one thing to take issue with the word and advocate for using a different one, but I’m not really understanding what you mean when you say it straight up isn’t a concept

if you mean misandry specifically, that makes a bit more sense, but misandry as in a systemic oppression of men (not real) and misandry as in personal level sexism against men are different, and the fact that people incorrectly believe in the first doesn’t inherently mean the word can’t describe the second. Although I would agree that just saying “sexism against men” is usually better
