i feel like wayyyy too many ppl think of transmisogyny as a ~special word~ just for trans women, and is why they then try to make up a ~special word~ for trans men
transmisogyny is simply the combined oppression of women and trans ppl. women are oppressed on the basis that they are women. trans ppl are oppressed on the basis that they are transgender. it’s similar to why the word misogynoir exists.
obviously, when one person is a part of multiple minorities, the bigotry that they face from both/all sides combine in incredibly nasty ways.
there is no ‘special‘ word like this for trans men not because they don’t face specific forms of transphobia(obviously they do), but because men are not oppressed solely on the basis that they are men. a point i see a lot in these discussions is ‘but men of color are oppressed!!‘ and the answer is yes, they are, because they are people of color. the word you are looking for for the oppression that moc face already exists. you’re thinking of racism.
not even the majority of terfs truly believe ‘CIS men bad,‘ when they say things like that they undeniably just mean trans women. terfs will absolutely not hesitate to buddy up with transmisogynistic men as long as they hype up their egos. similarly, they will side with fash men for their transmisogynistic views AND their eurocentric(read: racist) beauty standards, because the two go hand-in-hand, believe it or not
again. trans men are oppressed because they are transgender. not because they are specifically men. men are not oppressed on the sole basis that they are men. the word to use is still transphobia, because the oppression they face is because they are trans.

Im slowly learning z*modeler, almost to the point where now im creating a more efficient set up beyond the basics \o/ i will say one thing for the horror show that was this weekend - after watching ALL those presentations (so many presentations) it was nice to realize that this shit everybody else is ooooh-ing and ahhhh-ing over as 'new' and 'wow!' is shit i was doing 5 years ago. Confidence boost, after all this fucking rejection and nobody believing that i CAN do this shit.

thing I am eagerly awaiting/hoping for next ep (36)
FCG having a chat with Ashton about the whole “everything hurts all the time” thing and/or taking it upon themself to take on some of Ashton’s chronic pain and whatever fallout from that happens
Orym and Imogen having a chat about grief and Laudna and guilt and such
Imogen and Keyleth ALSO having this breed of discussion
just more time for the Hells to discuss Feelings about the whole situation in general
like even setting aside from the Moon Plot stuff, a very emotionally central member of the party is dead, and two of the currently alive party members died for a bit, Fearne’s parents and grandmother situation is a whole thing, FCG’s murderbot/trojan horse thing is another whole thing, as are the revelations about Dancer and whatnot, Imogen and Laudna had only just barely had the chance to make up before Laudna died, Laudna had been dealing with Delilah’s influence a lot more recently, Ashton had some Backstory Reveals that are clearly affecting them a lot, Chetney is having some weird werewolfy shit goin’ down that he has not really alerted anyone to, and I’m probably missing some more things but YEAH
they mentioned they needed a good round of What the Fuck is Up with That and i AGREE
Fearne and/or Chetney shenanigans in a fancy castle
Percy makes Mister a gun
Percy Regrets making Mister a gun
the whole party contributing to Laudna’s resurrection ritual cuz they’re a FAMILY, DAMMIT
Laudna coming to in a place that’s familiar and full of such awful memories, but this time she’s surrounded by the love and devotion of her new family and she is safe
whatever the fuck Delilah may do about the everything, especially being in Whitestone
