| '''Transmasculine''', sometimes abbreviated to '''transmasc''', is an [[umbrella term]] that describes a transgender person (generally one who was assigned [[Sexes#Assigned_female_at_birth|female at birth]]), and whose gender is masculine and/or who express themselves in a masculine way. <ref>[[Ash Hardell|Hardell, Ash]]. The ABC's of LGBT+. p.98.</ref><ref name="trans bodies 620">Laura Erickson-Schroth, ed. ''Trans Bodies, Trans Selves: A Resource for the Transgender Community.'' Oxford University Press, 2014. P. 620.</ref> Transmasculine people feel a connection with masculinity, but do not always identify as male. Transmasculine people can include, but are not limited to: [[man#transgender men|trans men]], [[Demigender#Demiboy|demiboys]], [[multigender]] people, [[genderfluid]] people and [[nonbinary]] people, as long as they identify with masculinity. [[Transfeminine]] is the feminine equivalent of transmasculine.

| In 2010, on an essay written on his blog [https://sleighthompson.wordpress.com/ Rants and Ramblings], titled ''What’s in a Word?: Crafting Transmasculine'', S. Leigh Thompson, who was president of the TransMasculine Community Network, presents the result of his work with organizers and advocates to craft a definition for the term "transmasculine." The definition suggested by Leigh was "any person who was assigned female at birth but feels that is an incomplete or incorrect description of their gender." He mentions, at the end of this blog post, that the first version of the essay had been published in 2006.<ref>Thompson, S. Leigh (24 November 2010).
