Transgender men are men who were assigned female at birth (or had certain intersex conditions), and who have a male gender identity. Most trans men ask to be called by [[Pronouns#He|"he" pronouns]], though there are exceptions. A trans man's [[sexual orientation]] can be gay, heterosexual, bisexual, asexual, or otherwise. Trans men are on the female-to-male transgender spectrum. Older psychological and medical writings wrongly call trans men "female transsexuals" or "female transvestites", and call them by "she" pronouns that they did not want. Trans men are men, not masculine women or [[butch]] lesbians. However, there are people who have considered themselves more than one of these at different points in their lives, because it can take time to figure out one's identity. | Transgender men are men who were assigned female at birth (or had certain intersex conditions), and who have a male gender identity.

Many transgender men [[transition]] to address [[gender dysphoria]], and some also consider themselves to be [[transsexual]] men. Any transgender person's transition path is very individual. Common features in a transgender man's transition path include [[hormone therapy]] to create a balance with testosterone higher than estrogen, and [[surgery]] to remove breasts (double mastectomy, in this situation called female to male chest reconstruction), and sometimes to remove their internal reproductive organs (complete hysterectomy). Many trans men choose not to get genital surgery, or are satisfied with nonsurgical methods that create a penis that looks and works differently to that of a cisgender man. With hormones alone, a trans man can easily be seen as a man in daily life, which owes partially to how patriarchy polices manhood differently than womanhood.<ref>{{cite web|author=Cary Gabriel Costello |title=Testosterone Does Not 'Work Better' than Estrogen |date=January 19, 2015 |website=TransFusion (personal blog) |url=http://trans-fusion.blogspot.com/2015/01/testosterone-does-not-work-better-than.html |access-date=24 July 2021}}</ref> | Many transgender men [[transition]] to address [[gender dysphoria]], and some also consider themselves to be [[transsexual]] men.

Some cultures that recognize(d) female-to-male spectrum gender roles include the Blackfoot Confederacy ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Ninauposkitzipxpe|Ninauposkitzipxpe]], "manly-hearted women"), the Navajo ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Nadleehi and Dilbaa|Dilbaa]]), the Bugis people of Indonesia ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Bissu|calalai]]) the Maori ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Whakawahine and Wakatane|Wakatane]]), and Albania ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Burrnesha|Burrnesha]], "sworn virgins"), and [[gender-variant identities worldwide|many others]]. Historically, these female-to-male spectrum people have included some people who were analogous to modern, Western ideas of trans men, as well as some possibly cisgender women who took up a male gender role or appearance in order to escape patriarchal oppression, to protect themselves from violence, and to have jobs that only men were allowed to have. | Some cultures that recognize(d) female-to-male spectrum gender roles include the Blackfoot Confederacy ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Ninauposkitzipxpe|Ninauposkitzipxpe]], "manly-hearted women"), the Navajo ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Nadleehi and Dilbaa|Dilbaa]]), the Bugis people of Indonesia ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Bissu|calalai]]) the Maori ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Whakawahine and Wakatane|Wakatane]]), and Albania ([[Gender-variant identities worldwide#Burrnesha|Burrnesha]], "sworn virgins"), and [[gender-variant identities worldwide|many others]].

Some people identify as both nonbinary and as a binary gender such as man. They see themselves as almost but not quite fitting into the gender binary, and feel an association with being a man or masculinity, while still feeling that it's significant that they don't fit into that category. Alternatively, they may simply not mind being seen as men while feeling no inherent connection to masculinity. Depending on how the individual defines their identity, they may consider themself to be nonbinary men if they also consider themself to be partly male ([[demiboy]]), queer masculine ([[butch]]), someone who only wants to be in the active role of sex without being touched ([[stone]]), [[lesbian man]], having a gender that often changes ([[genderfluid]]), [[genderqueer]], having more than one gender ([[multigender]]), [[eunuch]], or other kinds of identities. A self-described nonbinary man may consider themself to be on the female-to-male spectrum, or [[transmasculine]]. However, a nonbinary man could also be someone who considers themself to be on the male-to-female spectrum, or [[transfeminine]], and partly identifies with the masculinity assigned at birth. | Some people identify as both nonbinary and as a binary gender such as man.
