transphobic
Hostile to transgender
Transphobic describes hostility, prejudice, or discrimination toward transgender people—those whose gender identity differs from the sex assigned at birth.
The term covers a range from overt hatred to subtler forms of dismissal or exclusion: transphobic violence, transphobic legislation, a transphobic joke.
Someone holding such views is a transphobe.
