Multitransitional

[PT: Multitransitional / END PT]

When one is transitioning in multiple directions and/or identifies with multiple different trans- related labels (i.e: Transmascfem, being transmasc and transneu, etc). This is an alternative flag. The original flags are linked.

From the start, you are forced to pick between the labels transmasculine and transfeminine based on your AGAB. From then on, if you don't visibly present as the side you are transitioning to, you are seen as woman-lite or man-lite until others consider your transition complete, in which case you'll just be treated as a binary trans person.

Subvert this system in any way and your identity becomes scrutinised.

If you use a label like "transneutral" or "transxenine", expect doubts about whether your experience is real, or to still be asked if you're male or female ('transfem' or 'transmasc'/'TMA' or 'TME') so that they can categorise you still.

If you're multitrans, you will be told you're co-opting labels and either treated as a confused transmasc or a confused cis woman (yes, even if you're perisex AMAB).

And obviously if you're a AFAB transfem enby or an AMAB transmasc enby, you're actually just a cis woman/cis man, because you're 'not transitioning'. Damn, I thought we left the truscum rhetoric behind but apparently not.

If you're creative enough, any character can be gender/pronoun non-conforming, binary trans, nonbinary, cistrans, intersex, dysex, ersex, altersex, or any other form of TGD (trans & gender diverse) or varsex identity. In fact you can give them multiple of these traits!!!

That can either mean transitioning in multiple directions at the same time (transmascfem, transmascneu, transfemneu, transneuxen, transmascnull, transxenfem, transmascfemneu, etc.) and/or having multiple consecutive transitions that you consider to all be significant (FtMtF, MtFtM, FtMtFtM, MtFtMtF, FtMtX, MtFtX, XtFtM, XtMtX, FtXtMtX, MtXtF, etc.). Multitrans is an opt-in label, so not everyone in either group will consider themselves multitransitional.

I wanted to make this because I’m (probably?) multitrans myself and I was having a difficulty finding dedicated blogs for the concept. I was hoping I could make a blog for sharing our experiences and stories.
