@transcending_d: I take no offense in you calling me that. I'd prefer you finding another term however as I am not a boy anymore. And I do not use it for myself. #ftm #transman #trans
i feel too young for the term "trans man", but far too old for "trans boy" and i really don't like when people call me that. i call myself a "trans dude" or "trans guy" instead.

I feel the same way about being called a twink. like no, I'm not actually one, you just see me as inherently feminine and that's the word you can get away with :/

"tboy" has always sat incredibly weird with me. I put a lot of effort into looking like I'm straight out of the 90s gay disco scene, the general idea of being associated with minors or even children (which 'boy' more than implies) makes me so unbelievably uncomfortable? It's such an odd comparison, there is nothing child-like about a transmasc existance

no fr, its similar to being constantly called twink just bc I'm a trans guy. like Im fat, I am not a twink but bc I'm a trans guy people think it's funny to call me a twink? idfk

I’m a trans man and I volunteer as a chaperone at a group for trans and queer teens. I heard them discussing Tranma and Tranpa for older trans women and trans men.

I hate being called a trans boy or t-boy. I'm almost 25, I'm a grown man and I don't like how trans men are infantilized and fetishized

Zach 🚩🏴 :
Yeah that's how I feel too. I don't like being referred to as a tboy because it leggit sounds like a transphobic infantilizing term for me.

Phoenix M.B. :
I feel this way about "demi-boy". Does my genderfluidity lean masculine? Yes. But when I feel male, I am a whole 26yr old man, not a boy. But demi-man sounds like a superhero and demi-male sounds too clinical because of the relationship "male/female" has to biological sex as opposed to gender, like calling women "females". Been infantilised and reduced down to physical characteristics too much to put up with any of that.

I feel you as someone who is okay with it! I'm 19, sometimes calling myself a grown ass man feels strange because I'm younger, so it makes perfect sense that older trans men wouldn't like it, especially since yeah trans men are infantilized as is. I'd never default to T-boy if I don't know whoever I'm talking about is okay with it. 🤷🏾♂️

Ama/Phil :
I hate being infantilized sm, I reclaim certain terms for personal use (would never assume to use them on others) but being called "boy" with ANY descriptive adjective before it gives me the ick. I'm 30, not a child or a dog.
