(LGBT, slang) A female-to-male transexual or transgender person. - i. e. a trans guy. Note that we don't have the female counterpart trans girl. -- Liliana • 14:52, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

- Keep per policy (WT:COALMINE), since transguy exists. Compare transman, trans man. - -sche (discuss) 19:16, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- I doubt transguy (and, in converse, transgirl) is attestable. Should be sent to RFV. -- Liliana • 19:25, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- To save you the trouble, I went ahead and added three citations to the entry. There are several dozen more available on Google Books. Cheers, - -sche (discuss) 19:39, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- Pfff, stupid misogyny. One is attestable but not the other. I don't want to live on this planet anymore. -- Liliana • 19:43, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- Nah, transgirl and trans girl are attested, too. - -sche (discuss) 19:49, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- You must have a different Google Books than me. -- Liliana • 19:56, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- Google books behaves differently in different countries (I'm assuming you're in Germany). --WikiTiki89 20:09, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- Well, so is -sche... no? -- Liliana • 20:15, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah... that's strange. With the help of a few proxies I just compared google.de, google.com and google.fr's Books results for "transguy"; a few books showed up in a different order, but books did show up. I dunno... perhaps Google is, as it long promised/threatened it would, "showing results relevant to you", and for some reason decided books were not relevant to you. Maybe Google noticed your Babel box! lol - -sche (discuss) 21:08, 8 December 2013 (UTC)
- If it were to show results relevant to me, it should come up with a million books. -- Liliana • 04:56, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
