Some people think it's some fucked up religion that thinks sex isn't real and that everyone and their kids MUST be transed.
In reality, it's just people denoting a clear difference between sex and gender. One is down there (and much more), and one is up there (and much more). People will call anyone in favor of helping trans people "gender ideologists", but will refuse to elaborate on what "gender ideology" is.

Bob: GRRRRRRRRRR... all these gender ideology people and their pronouns!
Richard: Dude, what are you even saying?
Bob: Didn't you hear, man? They want to trans your kids!
Richard: I don't think that trans girl with the Nintendo Switch cares about your kids.
Laura: Sup?

A straw-man of a transgender narrative used by TERFs and conservatives that supposedly requires you to fit gender stereotypes of one's gender identity. In reality, a person doesn't have to fit specific stereotypes to be any gender, whether cis, trans or non-binary.
It serves to dehumanize transgender people through reducing them to the dangerous "ideology" that must be eradicated, serving the cause of trans genocide.

-Alice: I know of a person who is non-binary.
-Bob: How they are like?
-Alice: They dress androgynous, use they/them pronouns... they're deep in gender ideology.
-Bob: That's a straw-man argument, to be non-binary you don't need to be androgynous.

An umbrella term for many “beliefs” regarding gender, the main one being that sex and gender are two separate concepts that don’t always align. The term is typically only used pejoratively by those who are critical of trans people/issues and is thought of as a cult by some of the more reactionary types.
Radfem Roxy does not support trans people as she thinks their identity is a manifestation of gender ideology which she considers misogynistic and dangerous.

The ideology which holds, contrary to all existing biological, medical and psychological science, that there are "only two genders", that "sex and gender are synonymous".
This ideology was created by transphobic and transmiscic people who believe that transgender persons are delusional, that transgender persons can be turned into cisgender persons through conversion therapy, that conversion therapy is not quackery unsupported by medical evidence, that conversion therapy is not torture. Many gender ideologues also believe that there is a secret "transgender conspiracy" among greedy physicians and mentally ill teachers acting as "groomers", "grooming" cisgender children with a goal of "transing" them.

Proponents of gender ideology believe, as Dr. John Money did, that it is possible to groom cisgender children into becoming transgender. This is a belief not supported by science.

A belief that argues that the differences between men and women, keeping anatomical differences apart, are a cultural construction made according to the roles and stereotypes that society assigns to each gender.
-Person 1: They keep saying that they feel like a male because they love soccer.
-Person 2: They must believe in gender ideology, then.
