Transfobia

Transfobia adalah serangkaian perlakuan dan perasaan antagonistik melawan kaum transgender atau transseksual, atau melawan transeksualitas. Transfobia dapat membentuk perasaan tidak nyaman, takut, dan emosional pada orang-orang yang tidak nyaman terhadap keberadaan penyimpangan gender di masyarakat tersebut.[1][2] Sifat tersebut sering kali dipancarkan bersama dengan pandangan homofobik dan sering kali menjadi sebuah aspek dari homofobia.[3][4] Transfobia adalah sebuah jenis preyudis dan diskriminasi yang mirip dengan rasisme dan seksisme,[5] dan transgender kulit berwarna sering kali menjadi subyek dari seluruh tiga bentuk diskriminasi pada suatu waktu.[6]

Transgender people subjected to violence, in a range of cultural contexts, frequently report that transphobic violence is expressed in homophobic terms. The tendency to translate violence against a trans person to homophobia reflects the role of gender in attribution of homosexuality as well as the fact that hostility connected to homosexuality is often associated with the perpetrators' prejudices about particular gender practices and their visibility.
