Detailed explanation of wy trans(misandry|androphobia) dœsn’t exist :

Question: “If transmisogyny exists, does transmisandry?”

Answer: Based on the ways I have seen transmisandry commonly defined, I would say no. Firstly, misandry as a form of systemic oppression does not exist — trans men are not discriminated against for being men, but for being trans. Secondly, transmascs do face a specific type of transphobia, but transphobia is not unique to transmascs, while transmisogyny (which is not transphobia) is unique to transfems. Simply put, transmisogyny is the culturally pervasive attitude (held and perpetuated by anyone who is not a transfem) of regarding trans women as a third class of gendered categorization altogether, because, to quote myself, “[transmisogynists] cannot dignify us as women, but cannot accurately misgender us as men either without calling the stability of male supremacy into question.” (This process is called “third-gendering” or “degendering,” and you can read more about it here.) Therefore, transmisogyny operates on a different level of gendered oppression altogether. Again, transmascs do face a specific type of transphobia unique to them, but they do not experience quite the same form of marginalization which trans women do.

    Misandry exists, there are situations and circumstances where men face prejudice and hostility for being men, especially trans men and transmasculine people. YDI.

    By the way this isn’t the oppression Olympics, whining about being more oppressed than a certain other group who also is oppressed in other ways and trying to argue for the right to oppress them further isn’t going to be tolerated by people. It’s unproductive and hostile.
