Curation: Transmisia and transnegation should probably be merged, if they can't be clearly distinguished.

About

Transnegation is the denial -- almost always implicit rather than stated clearly -- that people who identify as trans actually experience transgendrity. It is a tool often employed in the service of transmisic rage farming.

Transnegation takes a variety of forms.

 ==About==
-[[Transnegation]] is a form of [[social stagnationism]] which has the ''net effect'' of needlessly working against the [[social right]]s or equality of [[transgender]] people, generally by denying that [[transgenderness]] is really a thing. It is not ''necessarily'' malicious in intent, and is often couched in sympathetic terms, though the reasoning always seems to point towards unspoken [[transmisia]] as a root cause. Where it appears sympathetic, it is typically based on [[disinformation]].

-As overtly religious arguments lost traction over the late 2010s (having shed most of their credibility during their [[homomisia|war on gay people]]), [[social stagnationist]]s have found more subtle ways to lend their ideas plausibility and have reoriented their focus toward criticism of [[transgenderness]], which lags behind [[homosexuality]] in its popular acceptance.
+* ''[[Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing Our Daughters]]'' is a book which implicitly denies the existence of trans men and [[AFAB]] [[enbies]].
-There are also a growing number of self-identified [[feminist]]s and "pro-woman" advocates (not necessarily feminists) who represent themselves as believing that trans rights represent a threat to women's safety. Since these people do not represent the majority of feminists (or even the majority of [[cisgender]] women), they have become referred to as "trans-exclusionary radical feminists" or "[[TERF]]s".
-The TERF branch of anti-trans advocacy most notably represents a growing political force [[/UK|in the UK]], where trans rights have been well established for some time but legal improvements and updates are needed in order to accommodate improved understanding.
