Controversy
This identity is controversial because it have been used by TERFs in order to mock transfeminine people, although there may be afab individuals who identify as transfeminine in good faith. The defenders of afab transfems argue that it's not because terfs have sometimes used it to try to invalidate or mock transfems necessarily imply that afab individuals cannot use the labeltransfeminine. Terfs regularly use the terms "man" or 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. "Amab and afab transfeminine individuals are simply realities that can coexist perfectly well. One does not invalidate the other one"[2]
