Transphobia

Transphobia

« Back to Glossary Index

The hatred/dislike of and discrimination against trans identities and any individual who identifies as trans. This word tends to be used to describe the systematic discrimination and transphobic abuse (physical, psychological or otherwise) levelled at people who are, or who are perceived to be trans. This could range from a trans man being subject to transphobic verbal abuse while walking in public, to the systematic erasure of trans human rights through transphobic legislation.
