It can be considered [[Umbrella Term|umbrella term]] for people who were assigned a non-feminine identity as birth, but transitioned to a feminine identity. |

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) (however, this isn't always accurate as not all transfeminine people are binary trans women). |

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. |
