Noun
autogynephile (plural autogynephiles)
- A person who exhibits autogynephilia.
- Evidently, the woman did not get those signals from the men. (If instead of being the wife of an autogynephile, she were the sister of a homosexual transsexual, I doubt she would have asked an analogous question.)2003, J. Michael Bailey, The Man Who Would Be Queen
- Transsexual and Nontranssexual Autogynephiles Resemble Each Other. […] I knew, however, that attempting to draw a definitive line between autogynephilic transsexuals and nontranssexual autogynephiles was a difficult if not an impossible exercise, even though I believed there were legitimate reasons...2012, Anne A. Lawrence, Men Trapped in Men's Bodies: Narratives of Autogynephilic Transsexualism, page 179
