Muttemor's definitions
A word used to describe several concepts when it comes to the terms 'traps' and 'trapping'.
In anime/hentai (and predominantly weeb culture) a trap is a bishounen male character who dresses or looks effeminate to the extent they are physically attractive even to straight men, often also referred to as 'tomgirls', 'sissyboys' or 'femboys'.
In western culture traps refer to trans-women in bar-culture as trans-women who 'pass' and often times are mistaken by heterosexual men for biological women, which often leads to mixed reactions upon discovery when the heterosexual man 'picks them up at the bar'.
Another western aspect for a trap, is the act of 'trapping'; which is a form of 'bait and switch' where a heterosexual male is tricked into having sexual relations or engaging in permisquous activities with either a gay male or a trans-woman. Often through being blind-folded, cohersion, peer pressure, or predominantly through streaming activities and vis 'glory holes'.

I watched this anime the other day with my friend and I really liked this one female character, they laughed at me when I told them and said, "man, you fell for the trap!"
I went to the bar and saw this smokin' hottie sitting there at the bar, turns out she was a fuckin' trap when I brought her back home, but I was like, fuck it and hit that shit anyways!
Bill looked through the glory hole and saw Karen standing there, but it turned out to be a trap, because he was actually fucking Steve... Karen was such a bitch!

Get the Trap mug.A reverse-trap is a heterosexual (usually) female character who dresses like, looks like or pretends to be a boy and 'passes' to the extent that NO ONE other than perceptively intelligent characters or complete degenerates (skirt-chasers) recognize them based on 'bone structure', 'having suspicions' or 'always knowing'. These characters are often outed at some point in the story through various means.
These characters also tend to focus on the 'I'm not that pretty trope' where they find themselves unattractive and another character (usually a male) who likes them or is close to them reassures them they are very pretty/beautiful/sexy ect... although not all reverse-traps have or exibit this trope like, Zelda in her Sheik form (Ocrina of Time), Pidge (Voltron 2018), Samus (Meteroid Prime) or Sypha (Castlevania).
Trans-men are NOT considered reverse-traps although, tomboys can technically be a possible reverse-trap depending on the portrayal.

Was watching Dragon Slayer, you know that old fantasy movie from 1981 and I forgot there had a reverse-trap on there, you know that character, Valerian.
