    You remember how everyone just used to say women 10-20 years ago? I guess that’s woke now. So much for conserving.

            The multiple of “trans woman” is “trans women” just like with “cis women” not “trans-woman”.

            There’s also no dash in either “cis women” or “trans women”, it’s not half-cis half-woman like Spider-Man, it’s just a descriptor adjective, like “cis woman” and “trans woman”.

            “Cis” and “Trans” of course come from the Latin prefix “this side of” such as in Cislunar Orbit or Translunar Injection (TLI) in astrodynamics or the Cisalpine Gaul in historical geography or in Cis/Trans isomerism in Chemistry.

            “Transmaxxing” is primarily used by incels that believe transition can be a way out of their inceldom, similar to gymmaxing etc., while I’ve never heard of anyone actually transitioning for such silly reasons as it’s a helluva thing to do, I doubt that this would work out in their favour.

            Additionally while many cis women do hate trans women, statistically speaking they are less likely to be against trans rights than men, especially on issues like trans women using the women’s bathroom or gyms or other issues that upset some cis people like healthcare access for trans children via either hormones or puberty blockers.

              No no no, It was coined by Cis White women to trash Trans-Women, PERIOD Stop scapegoating incels for everything & stop being a sex-obsessed creep (who wants to peek at other’s sex-life) as well, get some therapy
