Get the Transtrender mug.1. A slur used by transmedicalists to call any non-dysphoric transgender person, that implies that they aren’t REAL trans people and are just identifying as trans to be “cute” or “trendy.”
Of course, non-dysphoric trans are just as legitimate as dysphoric trans people, and dysphoric trans aren’t actually “cis people pretending to be trans for attention.” Which is why this term is only a slur and not a legitimate label.
2. This term is also sometimes used for any transgender who’s gender identity falls outside of the gender binary. Some truescum, believe there are only two genders, so any transgender who identifies as any gender besides “man” and “woman” is a fake trans person.
This of course is not true either since non-binary trans identities are just as valid as binary trans identities. Which is why this term is only a slur.
