    Exactly.

    More (extremely transphobic) details:

    TIM stands for “trans-identified male”, it’s what TERFs call trans women and transfem people more generally, and also apparently cis woman Imane Khelif (I am become jonkler).

    There’s a transmasc counterpart, TIF for “trans-identified female”.

    I’m sure a huge part of the draw here is that Tim is a man’s name while Tif (short for Tiffany) is a woman’s name.
