I'm not sure, but you could always make a metaphor. Might I suggest the word sloughing, which is generally used to mean the shedding of dead tissue? Like say, "no matter how hot you work the iron to slough its form-". Though then again, might be a big ask for a transphobe to use a rhetorical device like that.
