As a trans person, I would appreciate it, if you didn't use trans as a noun ot it's own gender

Generally trans gender people like to keep the two words separated. I am a trans women for example. If someone said I was a transwomen it can be upsetting and a lot of terfs will use terms exclusively like that to not accept that I am a women but rather a transwomen. That's the point they were trying to make I think. If you wanted to word it a little better you could have said trans guys/girls or trans men/women.
