Transmisogyny is a form of transphobia or cissexism that is specifically directed against transgender women.
===Misdirected misogyny===
Some misogyny harms people who aren't women, because others see them as being like women in some way. This is called misdirected misogyny. Transgender men are often subject to misdirected misogyny, as a combination of [[Misgendering|misgendering]] and misogyny, but nonbinary people and cisgender men can also be affected by misdirected misogyny.
Note that enbymisogyny can be seen as the intersection between enbyphobia and midirected misogyny.
