Transmasc is a umbrella term that includes trans men. Most trans men are binary men, while most transmascs use transmasc to mean transitioning in a masculine direction

for a lot of people transmasc is a general umbrella term but it’s really up to the individual on what they choose to label themselves as. technically i could be considered transmasc nb but i prefer to call myself a trans man or nb man

Dude me too! I call myself a trans man or ftm nonbinary. I am nonbinary, and that’s important to me, but to cis people I want to be seen as a man over being seen as a woman
