The lack of transmasc representation within the media is a telling sign of our own interpretations of masculinity within the queer community.
There are sprinklings of trans masc experiences on TV, like Leo Sheng in L Word Generation and Brian Michael Smith in 9-1-1.
A few personal social media accounts—like those of Schuyler Bailar, J Mase III, and Thomas Page McBee—give many needed lifelines for representation.
But when it comes to discussions or opinions of trans masc people in everyday discourse, there remains an unnerving silence.
