A '''boymoder''' is anyone who expresses themselves with [[masculinity]] and/or presents as a [[Man|male]] with one or more [https://gender.fandom.com/wiki/Gender_Expression#Qualities_of_gender_expression_can_include%2C_but_are_not_limited_to%3A gender qualities]. Anyone, regardless of their internal [[gender]], can boymode.

While 'malemode', 'mascmode', and 'andromode' may be the most neutral and proper terms, the term 'boymode' is most commonly and historically used in referral to malemoding/mascmoding/andromoding. Typically, there is an aesthetic presentational difference<ref>[https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/boymode#Usage_notes]</ref> between 'manmoding' and 'boymoding,' however, they are still listed as alternate names under the same label because they are both [[Man|male]] [[Gender Expression|presentations]] that fall under the same [https://gender.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Aspect_Of_Gender department] of [[Gender Expression|gender expression]]. 'Manmoding' and 'boymoding' are interchangeable, and can also be stacked or paired.

The [[Femininity|feminine]] counterpart is [[Girlmoder|girlmode]], and the soft counterpart is [[Softboymoder|softboymode]].

== Common Usage ==
In trans culture, a boymoder typically refers to a [[Trans Woman|trans woman]] who presents themself as a boy or man. This is often because the individual may still be in the process of transitioning/hasn't yet but wants to, or hasn't yet come out. It is also used by anyone whose gender presentation isn't limited or singular. The term itself is gender-neutral and is not related to the user's internal gender identity.
