a girl who is trans
a casual umbrella term for any TMA trans person. more universally accepted than trans woman or trans feminine among non-binary people for some reason, maybe because of the presence of gender-neutral terms giiirl in gay culture and grrl in dyke culture.
preferable to MTF or AMAB because it signals the person's actual identity rather than reiterating mainstream society's perception of them

Get the trans girlmug. a pretty trans girl
originally a transphobic term used by no homo bros and closeted chasers to signal to each other that someone was a trans girl, ie. "sure you want to buy her a drink? she's a trap iykwim." popular among star wars eggs who are masking around cis boy gamers by putting down their own fam.
long considered an untouchable pejorative among trans women bc of its relation to transbashing, the term was slowly reclaimed to be a sassy compliment from one trans girl to another: "shit grrl, you're such a trap." now fully reclaimed by trans women, as with fish, and being used to mean any trans girl regardless of her sexual appeal to straight men. often combined with a pun, ie. "bear trap" for someone who dates bears, or "booby trap" for someone with bounteous tits.

Get the vaginoplastymug. 1) a posi noun for a trans person, replacing the pejorative noun tranny.
useful linguistically where the more common adjective trans won't flow in your sentence. plural: "trans," bc none of this was confusing enough already. usually only used to refer to oneself, preceded by a single adjective, as a caption for a selfie (ie. "glam tran"); if used to refer to another person, it could be interpreted as a slur, which would defeat the purpose of making up new words to distance ourselves from ru paul.
2) a common Việt family name (Trần). 11% of all vietnamese trans are also Trầns.

Get the Tranmug. intentional mis-spelling of trans, used internally among trans people. commonly: "trains pride" "trains girl" "trainsexual" etc.
from this time when ru paul once mistakenly posted an image of Train Landscape (a painting by Ellsworth Kelley) thinking that it was an image of the trans flag because it also has some pretty stripes. Train Landscape is quickly outstripping the Monica Helms trans flag design as the most popular representation of trans pride, mostly bc everyone hates on the pink-and-blue version for being so damn infantalizing.
apparently gay oogles / train hoppers have been using this term for decades but no one cares what they say 'cause they don't exist on the internet

Get the trainsmug. when a trans person realizes they're not cis. derived from the term egg. not the same thing as coming out. not exactly a posi experience.
hatching doesn't imply you transform from an ugly cis child into a beautiful swan bb or anything, most of us just become fucked up omelettes

Get the hatchmug. technically just a trans girl who likes girls
more commonly used to mean a TMA trans who is culturally / aesthetically a dyke, regardless of their specific sexuality (bi/pan/ace/etc). a more aggressive term than trans lesbian.
also known as the people who've been getting shit done on the street while the rest of you LGBT "activists" bitch about gay marriage on facebook
