Usage notes

Although the term contains a historically vulgar element, it has been reclaimed by some transmasculine, nonbinary, and intersex people who use it to describe their bodies or gender experience on their own terms. In this sense, it functions as an expression of empowerment and defiance of traditional gender expectations. As with other reclaimed words, its use should be limited to self-description or respectful contexts, since it can still be viewed as offensive when used by outsiders.
