In Karl Heinrich Ulrichs' work where he first uses the term ''Urning'' (a German word from which the English "Uranian" is said to have derived), the separate term [[Urningin]] is proposed for homosexual, assigned female at birth people who identify and express themselves in a generally-masculine way.<ref name="Ulrichs2">{{Cite book|url=http://archive.org/details/bub_gb_bAkQAAAAYAAJ|title=Forschungen über das Räthsel der mannmännlichen Liebe|last=Ulrichs|first=Karl Heinrich|date=|publisher=C.
