Transmasculine: Difference between revisions

'''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]].

P. 620.</ref> Transmasculine people feel a connection with masculinity, but do not always identify as a man. Transmasculine people do always need to be reffered to as "he/him". Some transmaculine people use "they/them", "he/they", and sometimes even "she/her" pronouns. Again, transmasc people do not always refer to themselves or feel the need to call themselves a man.
