Transmasculine
"Transmasculine" is an umbrella term describing individuals who were assigned female at birth but identify on the male side of the gender spectrum.[1][2] A transmasculine individual may identify with many aspects of masculinity but not wish to describe themselves as "a man",[3] and so may choose to behave in ways that are typically associated with women.[1]
