    transgenderism

    Forgive me if I’ve been mislead, but from what I understand “transgenderism” is a term used by transphobes to diminish a legitimate phenomenon, implying it is a belief or fad.

    Still upvoted for contributing to the discussion and for supporting an alien in his search for the universe’s best cup of coffee.

      I always hear “transgender ideology” from transphobes, to make it more of a thought exercise and fad than a physical state of being. “Transgenderism” is a word I’ve been familiar with for decades but it may have been coopted or is being eschewed now, not sure.
