baeddel

Baeddel is the etymological root of bad. Originally meaning "a queer or effeminate man or hermaphrodite" people forgot all about the original meaning. Just as if everyone forgot that calling someone queer had anything to do with being gay and just began using it for its derogatory connotation. Later on trans women began calling themselves Baeddels as part of a feminist movement meant to reclaim their history sometime around 1990. Around 2016 when various tumblr users encountered real feminists trying to revive parts of an ancient indigenous language it went about as well as anyone could have expected. They should have just invented a xenogender.

Trans woman: I've been reading a lot about baeddels and I think I should start calling myself one because I'm tired of being called a man hating rapist child molestor.
Tumblr users: you're a man hating rapist child molestor! Probably racist too!

transandrophobia

It's misogyny but for the fellas.

"This trans woman was talking about misogyny but I didn't notice her talking about transandrophobia. We're really getting erased out here. We also need soap that smells like pencil shavings and is colored black."

theyfab

Someone who is a "theyfab" is trans person who is not transitioning medically and afab (assigned female at birth) and who goes by the pronouns they / them. The origin of the word is a portmanteau afab / they - theyfab. The word originated as a way to criticize women who call themselves trans for the social clout on websites like tumblr. The so called theyfab assume this identity because it's useful as a shield and a hammer to bludgeon other kinds of queer people who are more visible and vulnerable than them and will use their identity to acquire as many privileges at as little cost as possible. This word is widely considered offensive but only by other theyfabs. Notable theyfabs include Ana Mardoll, Aiden Hale and a million obese smol beans named Greyson.

Person one: "Hey did you know that if you put they/them pronouns on your women's college application you can get scholarships for it?"
Person two *overhearing*: "Theyfabs, theyfabs, theyfabs."

Transwoman.

A transwoman is an incorrect way to write trans woman. This spelling might get you yelled at by people who don't have anything better to do.

"Transwoman.? Transwoman is incorrect because trans is an adjective and woman is a noun. Trans women are women not transwomen. If that makes sense."
