Because this article contains material about one or more [[trans men]], it should adhere to Wikipedia's guideline on identity, even if it is not a biography. According to '''[[MOS:IDENTITY]]''', any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man", "waiter", "chairman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification, and for trans men this is male. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Direct quotations may need to be handled as exceptions (in some cases adjusting the portion used may reduce apparent contradictions, and " [sic]" may be used where necessary). Nevertheless, avoid confusing or seemingly logically impossible text that could result from pronoun usage (for example: instead of He gave birth to his first child, write He became a parent for the first time).)<p>
