What Is Trans-Umbrellism? | Trans Theories

what is trans umbrellism? thumbnail

I’m officially coining the term Trans-Umbrellism. Trans-Umbrellism is a trans theory stating that one is trans if they don’t identify with their gender assigned at birth. Trans gender is an umbrella term that covers a wide-variety of gender-variant individuals including: transsexuals, i.e., people who medically transition from one sex to another; non-binary, genderqueer and other individuals with incongruent gender expressions, 3rd gender people from different cultures, crossdressers, drag performers, & MORE!!!!!!
