When a transgender person or transgender ally talks about their identity and/or general issues the transgender community face, and a transphobe wants to silence this discussion, they label whatever the transgender individual says as "transplaining".
Thus, "transplaining" is a slur a transphobe will use to label and stifle any conversation by a transgender individual or ally regarding trans issues.
