It's really confusing when you say "Trans men" but are referring to people who were assigned the male gender at birth but identify as female. These people are trans women. People who were assigned female at birth but identify as male, THEY are trans men.
You don't have to agree with the accepted terminology, but it's much easier to follow discussions if everyone uses the same wording. It's also courteous.
