Transphobia - From Merriam-Webster: (n) : irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against transgender people.

Notice how that slip "discrimination" into the definition. Further more, they have, "//Homophobia and transphobia are still major issues among LGBTQ youth, who are at higher risk for verbal harassment by classmates … — Erica Lenti"

I certainly do not have an irrational or rational fear to transgender people. I do have a natural and rational aversion. And hell yeah, I rationally discriminate.

I do not buy into that this is some form of mental illness. It is a choice, a bad one at that. People who make exceptionally bad choices, except family, are excluded from my life. There's just not enough time or room to deal with that.

People don’t usually understand the difference between rational and irrational discrimination anymore. All the propaganda against “discrimination”, that ironically didn’t discriminate between the two types, has made everyone think that “discrimination=bad”.

Remember the old commercials where some product would be advertised as “for those with discriminating tastes”? If you played one on tv nowadays, people would be flooding the station with calls asking why you are advertising products to racists!
