Aย transgender manย (this may be shortened to trans man, or FTM (female-to-male) is aย manย who wasย assigned female at birth. Trans men have a maleย gender identity, and many trans men undergoย medical and social transitionย to alter their appearance in a way that aligns with their gender identity or alleviatesย gender dysphoria. Often the media, police, or scientific community may incorrectly use this language. They will base the individuals identity based on their sex assigned at birthย and the gender associated with it. sources - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans_man - https://web.uri.edu/gender-sexuality/resources/lgbtqa-glossary/trans-101-glossary/
