someone who dates a lot of trans people
often a john or sugar daddy who's convinced themselves that they can have their cake and eat it too without being out of the closet. even when acting a perfect gentleman, chasers can't help dehumanizing or fetishizing their trans dates, because they're not being honest about their own needs. because they're so thirsty, chasers are the #1 provider of material support for trans girls outside of Lyon-Martin.
also used within trans circles to signal that someone's dating habits are ethically questionable, ie. they /only/ date trans women but not cis women, or they date cis women and femme trans men but not trans women — aka invalidating trans identities while simultaneously claiming allyship.
shortened from tranny chaser by trans women to remove the distasteful slur and focus on naming the offense.

1) a posi noun for a trans person, replacing the pejorative noun tranny.
useful linguistically where the more common adjective trans won't flow in your sentence. plural: "trans," bc none of this was confusing enough already. usually only used to refer to oneself, preceded by a single adjective, as a caption for a selfie (ie. "glam tran"); if used to refer to another person, it could be interpreted as a slur, which would defeat the purpose of making up new words to distance ourselves from ru paul.
2) a common Việt family name (Trần). 11% of all vietnamese trans are also Trầns.
