I kind of want to point out how a lot of the "prominent voices of transandrophobia" try their bests to always disclaim that transandrophobia is not transfemmes' faults, despite all the claims about how "transandrophobia truthers always blame transfemmes for their oppression." I think a lot of the prominent voices on here are really good about not even bringing transfemmes into the equation of lateral aggressors unless it is to punch home the point that it is not about or just transfemmes who can be laterally aggressive (you know, because without such, they would be dog piled thrice as hard as they are already because people love to read words that aren't there and cannot be implied from the text in front of them).
I find posts that claim that the "truthers" only spew rhetoric against trans women and transfemmes highly unrealistic considering all the posts in the #transandrophobia tag and on blogs that talk in any capacity about transandrophobia. Not to say that it doesn't happen, but most conversations I see on a daily basis are so far from that that I can only think that one person came up with the reason to discredit trans folks who talk about it and then so many people parrot-ed it in order to be "progressive" and mindful of transmisogyny on an introductory basis (which a lot of people do in general to be "good little allies" to any marginalized group).
Edit: a little typo in the beginning. Fixed!
