Enby here: I'm neither a transman nor a transwoman, but trans issues affect me.
"Trans" can be a pretty large umbrella. When you get into specifics, I'm not so sure that I'm trans. But I am part of the trans community. Not trans, but also trans. Schrodinger's trans person.
Consider someone who's agender. They'd be non-binary, but they also aren't transitioning to any gender. Ask the GOP which bathroom to use and you can watch their head explode.

Yup, that describes me - AFAB, androgynous enough that when I stopped binary gender presentation I started getting kicked out if women's toilets. I wouldn't call myself trans because I've put in no effort (just stopped doing things), and to do so would feel like stolen valour. I do feel like in order to claim an identity one should either fit in that general area, or put in some effort towards it.
