Transtidal: A trans person who has a masculine or man related identity, is transitioning towards masculinity or manhood, etc., regardless of anything else about their identity. Can be shortened to transtid.
Someone who might want to use this label includes...
Those whose manhood or masculinity is distinctly trans, but do not identify with being a trans man or transmasculine.
Someone who is admasculine and/or sensmasculine, and who feel that this identity is also trans.
People who do not want their AGAB assumed; only that they are trans, and aligned with masculinity or manhood in some way. This includes transmasc and trans men who would rather not disclose being that identity for safety, comfort, or preference.
Identifying with your AGAB, while also feeling as though you're transitioning towards it or have an identity surrounding it in a trans way (such as experiencing a different kind of masculinity or manhood.)
Nonbinary, genderqueer, etc. men or masculine people who want a blanket term for their trans identity, or who feel as though they're transitioning to manhood or masculinity in their own way.
Those who are reclaiming their manhood or masculinity that was formerly upsetting or wrong for them, and thus feel as though they're transitioning to it or only just realizing their manhood or masculine gender.
Someone who is simply trans and masculine and/or a man, and likes the term transtidal to describe that.
The term refers to the tides, and how they rise and sink, flow and recede from the ocean, and can represent someone's identity or transition. Or it can just be a cool nod to the ocean, doesn't matter.
The feminine equivalent to this term is translunar.
This term was made by me, but the flag and symbol weren't; they were submitted by someone! I edited the flag a bit to be brighter, but other than that, credit goes to them!
