transphobia

Transphobia (or much less commonly transprejudice) is a range of antagonistic attitudes and feelings against transsexuality and transsexual or transgender people. Transphobia can be emotional disgust, fear, anger or discomfort felt or expressed towards people who do not conform to society's gender expectations. Although it is an aspect of homophobia, and is similar to racism and sexism, views that are homophobic, racist or sexist have largely become unacceptable in modern society, whereas significantly more individuals still maintain transphobic views without fear of censure.
