Example Sentences
- "When I was coming of age in the '60s, I squirmed and squiggled not to be pinned down by that great transfixer "the homosexual" which American psychiatry had made into such a weighty implement. To be stuck by that label, it seemed to me, would mean having to live my life as a case history in a medical text book."
Etymology
From transfix + -er.
