Andromimetophilia (sometimes misspelled as androminetophilia) is an attraction to women who imitate men or to female-to-male transsexuals, either preoperative or postoperative.

The paraphilic counterpart to andromimetophilia is gynemimetophilia, the attraction to men who imitate women, or male-to-female transsexuals.

As a Transsexual Woman I am not a man imitating a woman, I am a woman. This Misplaced Pages description of transsexual women and me is insulting. Maybe a little research into the term transsexual is needed before posting such information. One may imitate one of the sex opposite their birth but a transsexual does not.
