As a queer person myself I've not yet seen something like this at least not something common or popular. The mainstream LGBTQ+ community is clearly accepting of trans men and most of the "in-fighting" in queer communities is made up by conservatives.

And btw you should use trans man instead of transman because the latter implies trans men are somewhat different from "regular" men.

Can you explain how a space between the words does that?

When you write "trans man" you're using trans as an adjective and as a description of a man. When you use "transman" it's a new noun and this means it's a different thing other than just "men".

but men is just plural? Like I was referring to a group of people. That doesn't mean they aren't men.
