transplaining

When a trans-person tries to explain your sexual identity or orientation to you contrary to the fact that this is a personal choice and everyone has the right to identify as they please.
Person A: I'm super-straight
Person B (trans): That's transphobic, genital preference isn't a sexual identity..
Person A: Please don't transplain to me, I know what I am and it's not for you to decide. Transplaining is superphobic.

Transplaining

When a Transgender person or an ally tries explaining sexuality and science to Super Straight people and tries to invalidate their very real and valid identity in the process.
Trans: there's no such thing as a biological female read up on your science. And Super Straight can't be a sexuality it's a preference.

Super Straight: You're Transplaining. I don't know where you're going with this... But it's not in Super Straight pants.

Transplaining

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.
Trans man (FTM): "I prefer he/him pronouns and prefer using the men's toilets, especially as I present as a male, thus using the women's toilets will cause confusion and makes me uncomfortable".

A transphobe/gender critical/terf: "You're transplaining!"
