Hi! Cis person here with a genuine question - how can someone be both AFAB and transfem? The way I’ve learned it all my life is that “trans” means someone whose gender differs from their sex, so it sounds impossible for someone to be both transfem and AFAB. Please do explain though, I’d like to learn!
there are a lot of ways to be afab transfem but here are the ones that i can think of
being intersex and afab and transitioning into a woman (theres a lot of different ways for this)
transitioning into a different type of femininity (neogirl, antegirl, demigirl, etc)
being multigender and considering all of your genders trans
being a headmate in a system that is an introject of a transfem (this is why most of us id as afab transfem)
being a brainmade headmate in a system that is transfem
detransitioning
