Definitions by jouissancepastance

"Unidentified Aerial Phenomena". Sometimes instead "Unexplained Aerial Phenomena".

A visual stimulus that provokes a sighting report of an object or light seen in the sky, the appearance and/or flight dynamics of which do not suggest a logical, conventional flying object, and which remains unidentified after close

scrutiny of all available evidence.

Basically a newer term for UFO, but meant to imply a higher degree of validity.
"There’s a new name. It’s unexplained aerial phenomenon, UAP. That’s the latest nomenclature.” —Hillary Rodham Clinton

Trans-Identified Male. A feminist revision of the more commonly known "MtF" (male-to-female). Meant to clarify that even if an adult human male person self-identifies as trans or female or non-binary anything other than male, the sex of the individual can never actually be changed, and the cultural social conditioning of the person's childhood cannot be instantly forgotten.
I quit using the Orwellian term "MtF"; TIM is more accurate and neutral.

rainbow mafia

General name for individuals or groups who push the neoliberal LGBTQIA+ agenda aggressively and without room for questioning, critical thinking, or compromise. Dissenters are subject to ad-hominem attacks and online doxxing.
The rainbow mafia is always forcing people to accept anything trans… and if you do or say anything to dispute it, you're a villain.

transplain 

Verb (transplaining, transplained). To "explain" the so-called "facts" of a transgender fantasy using circular reasoning and post-modern nonsense words. Usually accompanied by character attacks and other logical fallacies. Common among SJWs and students of gender studies. Similar to the verb "mansplain", but with a right-on lefty twinge.
Another TRA transplainer in the comments today.
Penis-Exclusive Radical Feminist. A feminist revision of the more commonly known slur, "TERF". Meant to clarify that rad fems don't exclude trans (since they accept trans men, or trans-identified females), but that they actually exclude penis (male-bodied persons, or men).
Her bio reads "PERF not TERF…PERF and proud".

Male-to-Trans. A feminist revision of the more commonly known "MtF" (male-to-female). Meant to clarify that even if a trans-identified adult human male person changes appearance through hormones or surgery to align with a personal feeling of gender, the sex of the individual can never actually be changed to female (the physical change is only "skin deep").
I quit using the Orwellian term "MtF"; MtT is more accurate and neutral.
