• note Timothy Snyder's comment “In the Russo-Ukrainian war, an much smaller apolitical mixed-gender army, the Ukrainian one, has held back a much larger, politicized, patriarchal, anti-woke, anti-gay, and anti-transsexual army, the Russian one” (also of interest is “Women have fought and killed men in combat throughout history, as customs and technology permitted.  It is a modern prejudice to deny this.  ... our source on Sparta, Herodotus, reminds us that the greatest warriors of the age, famously undefeated by Persia, were the Scythians.  And the Scythians did have female warriors, cavalry armed with recursive bows.  Custom and technology permitted them to fight, and they did.  Judging by the archaeological finds in today's southern Ukraine, about one in five Scythian warriors was female.  It took a while for archaeologists to realize this, because of the male-ego-preserving prejudice that all warriors are male.  It was only the DNA evidence -- nature, as it were -- that forced the conclusion that was in fact obvious from the female skeletal remains.”) 

 

transmisia (a suggested replacement for transphobia)

Suggested here: as phobia means fear of, whereas what is generally being dealt with is hate of, the more accurate term is transmisia.
