    Transemphasis is a word that refers to those who emphasize transness as a very important part, or the most important part, of their identity. It has ties to concepts such as trans radicalism, anti-assimilationist queerness, and trenderpunk. It can be someone’s only identity, as in, one's trans and nothing else, or it could be combined with another label, like, I’m a transemphatic woman, a transemphatic man, a transemphatic xeumel, etc.[1]

    In the case of being combined with being a trans man or woman, it could be understood as the person wanting to emphasize their transness, not their (wo)manhood. Someone who isn’t transemphatic might say, “I’m a man,” rather than, “I’m a trans man,” while a transemphatic person would put the focus on the trans part of themself, not the man part.

    The concept or state of transemphasis can be a visible one, shown through clothing, pronouns, names, presentation, etc, or a private one, in the way that many labels are private.
