minus-squarecubedsteaks@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months ago And btw you should use trans man instead of transman because the latter implies trans men are somewhat different from “regular” men. Can you explain how a space between the words does that?
minus-squareMia@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agoWhen you write “trans man” you’re using trans as an adjective and as a description of a man. When you use “transman” it’s a new noun and this means it’s a different thing other than just “men”.
minus-squarecubedsteaks@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up1·10 months agobut men is just plural? Like I was referring to a group of people. That doesn’t mean they aren’t men.
