It makes me sad when I see people in community describing themselves as a “transwomen” instead of trans women.
It’s a word made up by TERFs and other transphobes to differentiate between cis or as they would say,
'phobic language
“normal”
women, and transgender women.
“Trans” is short for transgender, an adjective modifying the noun “women.” Hence, it should be two words, trans women. Same as tall woman or short woman, not tallwoman or shortwoman.
There is a standard-ish adjective order in English:

Yeah but how does that work? Is ‘black’ an origin modifier? Then in the first one, Trans has to be either a material, a type, or a purpose. Yeah ok that kind of makes better sense the other way around.
