  1. An informal investigation into whether a public figure is secretly transgender, generally conducted by analyzing that person's appearance and anatomical structure. Internet
    — The conspiracies I think are really bad is the ones that come from elitism and say that one group is better than another, so that's what I think is really stupid. Another thing that gets me are transvestigations, conspiracies about people's gender, like Justin Bieber being a girl and Miley Cyrus being a guy. It's just so stupid.
