  • The term womxn is an alternative spelling of the English word woman. Womxn has been found in writing since the 1970s, along with the term womyn, to avoid perceived sexism in the standard spelling, which contains the word man. The term "womxn" began gaining more attention and use in the 2010s as intersectional feminists promoted it as explicitly inclusive. It has been adopted by various organizations, including student university groups in the US and UK, who call it more inclusive of trans and nonbinary people than women and other alternative spellings. Conversely, it has been criticized for being unnecessary or confusing, conflicting with the uncommonness of mxn to describe men. The use of womxn as a gender-inclusive alternative to woman has also been criticized for having the transphobic implication that trans women are not women but are a separate category (womxn). (en)
