-AFAB Transfem is controversial because it has been used by [[TERF|TERFs]] in order to  mock transfeminine people, although there may be AFAB individuals who identify as transfeminine in good faith. Defenders of AFAB transfems argue that, althoig TERFs have sometimes used it to try to invalidate or mock transfeminine individuals, this doesn’t necessarily imply that AFAB individuals cannot use the label transfeminine. TERFs regularly use the terms "[[man]]" or ''[[GNC|crossdresser]]'' in an attempt to invalidate or mock [[AMAB]] transfems, but isn't a valid reason to  force people to stop using the term "man" or ''crossdresser'' to describe themselves.

 Pro-AFAB transfems support the idea that no gender identity should be segregated based on a person's genitalia. Everyone should be able to identify with whatever they want regardless of their sex assigned at birth.
