Is "transphobic" now a word? If so, when did that happen? And what exactly does it mean? Based on its Greek and Latin  roots, it should mean fear of crossing, or fear of going beyond. Just like "homophobic" should mean fear of sameness. Somebody should be fixing these poorly-derived neologisms.
P.S. Blogger's spellchecker advises that it be broken up into two words: trans phobic. How does that help?
