TRANSTRENDER - a mix of "transgender" and "trendy". It is an often derogatory term used towards transgender people. It is often used to describe a person that identifies as transgender in order to be trendy, different, or for fetish reasons.
A transgender person may be labeled as "transtrender" for reasons like:
· Being outside the gender binary eg. non-binary, genderqueer, catgender etc
· Not applying gender standards to themself eg. AMAB identifying as a tomboy, not wanting to be fully feminine or identifying as a "butch lesbian"
· Not experiencing gender dysphoria (other slur for these people is "tucute")
· Showing signs of fetishization eg. AFAB FTM that shows strong sexual interests in yaoi, gay abuse stories, femboys and gay men (women showing these interests are called "fujoshi")
This slur is used both by transgender people, queer cis people, as well as cishet people. Some transgender people reclaim this term.
· Example 1:
Person: Have you heard about name? They identify as pupgender now.
Skeptic person: Sure, sure. Let me guess, no gender dysphoria either, huh? They are basically a huge transtrender to me.
· Example 2:
Person: I met up with a friend, and they told me that name is now a transgender man!
Skeptic person: Yes, I know that already. name was infamous for their yaoi obsession, no wonder they decided to become a uwu gay femboy. They are just a fujoshi that wants some gay sex, that's all!
