It can be considered an [[Umbrella Term|umbrella term]] for people who are trans and identify with feminine gender identities more so than anything else. |

Transfeminine people can also identify as other, non-feminine genders as well. For example, an [[androgyne]] person may identify as transfeminine, though typically one's feminine identities are more significant that one's non-feminine identities, or one wants to emphasize their feminine identity. Transfeminine people are sometimes called MtF or M2F (male to female) |

Transfeminine people are typically AMAB, although they can be of any assigned gender at birth. However, [[AFAB]] trans people who identify with a feminine gender may prefer to identify as [[intrafeminine]] or [[Adgender|adfeminine]], as these are identities more specific to them. |

Transfeminine is sometimes used, not as a gender identity, but as a way to describe anyone who is assigned male at birth and undergoes femininization, either through surgery, [[Hormone Replacement Therapy|hormone replacement therapy]], or other methods. Under this definition men who take hormones to attempt to appear more feminine would be considered transfeminine. |
