When a transgendered person (typically someone who is assigned male at birth) talks down to cisgendered people (typically cisgendered women) about various topics including biology, gender, gender expression, privilege, etc. Often it is an outlandish idea or talking point that when opposed by a cisgendered person the trans individual or followers of said individual will call the cisgendered person a bigot or transphobic for lack of a better argument.
Amab Transfemme: I take HRT and it gives me a period. I get tender breasts, cramps and I'm super hormonal at certain times of the month.
Cis woman: I'm sorry but that's not a period. You don't have a uterus or ovaries so that's physically impossible.
Amab transfemme: My period is very real to me! I do everything but bleed! You're being exclusionary to trans women! How privileged you are to be Cis! You're transphobic!
Cisgender woman: Did you just transplain my own bodily function to me?
