As 2025 begins, the term ‘transvestigation’ gains traction in France, involving pseudo-investigations into the identities of powerful women, notably Brigitte Macron. Amandine Roy and Natacha Rey sparked controversy by claiming Macron was a transgender woman. This conspiracy theory attacks various female public figures, reinforcing transphobia and misogyny. Critics warn that such theories are dangerous and reflect broader societal prejudices, echoing past pseudo-scientific methods used to justify discrimination. As digital culture evolves, the implications of these beliefs pose serious threats to both civil rights and societal norms.
