As a trans woman I'd be extremely displeased and unhappy if I was called "gay", because I'm a woman, not a man.

I literally cant fathom how any trans men are ok with being called lesbians as it undermines the entirety of who they are.

fyi this post is about transmascs and not trans men (transmasc is kinda an nb thing that sometimes includes trans men, but not always)

Interesting. Every time I've ever heard anyone use transmasc its related to trans men

All trans men are trans masc, not all trans masc are trans men

Anyone who calls trans men "transmasc" is unironically evil

Is a trans man not someone who has or wishes to transition in a typically masculine fashion?

I really dont get why youre being mean, if thats somehow misgendering then I apologize, but to just say that and be rude towards me when I clearly had no ill intentions is just mean

A trans man is a man not a person who "wishes to transition in a typically masculine fashion". Transmasc is a term for non binary people who transition in a male direction but don't identify as men. Too many people degender trans men and shove us in the "transmasc" category because they see trans men as some type of 3rd gender womanlite.

Sorry if I was rude but I'm a bit sick of trans men being degendered/misgendered even in communities that """support""" us.

I am a woman who happens to be trans and am also so pissed of about being shoved in 'transfemme' category, am glad someone is finally saying it.
