If some day there's a cultural shift that brings one of these words (or some unknown future word) into widespread use for both I'll adapt and go with that, but for now that distinction feels useful to me and no one uses either so why not.

An example of transandrophobia: "You don't see trans MEN going around playing men's sports or insisting on using men's bathrooms." An example of virilismia: "Testosterone will RUIN your beautiful female body."

Can I ask why you settled on 'virilismia'
? I think making the distinction is helpful. -
Virilization means masculinization, so it's intuitive to me to use virilismia to specifically describe disgust at/resistence to virilization. I saw someone else using it and it really clicked with me.

I'm really happy to see more people using it and I hope it can become more popular. To me it just makes sense and can be used to describe so many of our experiences more accurately.
