The author is Danish, are you so certain that this isnt just slightly awkward usage of a second laguage that you are willing to throw transphobic at them as an insult?
No - it was the language that I said was transphobic, not the author. Given that there were two different word choices ("transsexual" and "perceived gender") that reinforced each other, it seems more likely than not that they reflected the mindset of the author, but not having looked further for their other writings I was not sure. That's why I said " transphobic language" and not "transphobic author".
