Janice Raymond is a radical feminist well-known for her virulent transphobia.

Her attacks on transsexuals began with her 1979 book The Transsexual Empire: The Making of the She-Male. The book includes the infamous line:

All transsexuals rape women’s bodies by reducing the real female form to an artifact, appropriating this body for themselves.[1]

Her hate speech against transsexuals completely ignores the existence of female-to-male transsexual people.
