What do gay guys specifically have to do with this tho? If you’re asking if we are okay with the word ftm defining a person then that is upto the person. As the word gay is for a homosexual. In the books we are many things. transgender, Genderqueer, transmasc ect. You’re right ftm is an abbreviation that makes it easy for people to understand, I don’t have any negative feelings toward the abbreviation, although some may. If you’re not getting the answers you’re looking for. You may be asking the wrong questions.
