The Transsexual Empire: The Making of the She-Male is a 1979 book about transgender people by radical feminist author Janice Raymond. It has been criticized by LGBT and feminist writers as transphobic and dehumanizing.
Natalie Washington called The Transsexual Empire a "book [...] so influential on modern anti-trans movements, in which [Raymond] suggests 'the problem of transsexualism would best be served by morally mandating it out of existence.'"
