A cute or handsome male character or person who could pass as female, though may, at times, require crossdressing to do so. Also applies to characters with ambiguous gender who would be able to pass for either, given the occasion. In both cases, the cutoff for age is usually around 20, though it may apply to some far older depending on context and/or character design. Similarly, "Reverse Trap" refers to female characters who could pass as male in the same way.
The term "trap" finds its roots in anime, first coined on 4chan while it was still an anime-only discussion board (now /a/), originally used to define male characters who cross-dress. Over the years, the definition in the anime community has become more broad, encompassing a subset of the following tropes: Dude who looks like a lady, Wholesome crossdresser, Disguised in drag, Ambiguous gender and Bishounen.
This term is not to be confused with: Otokonoko, Femboy and Josou.
Trap also does NOT relate to transgenderism, and should not be used to refer to transpeople.

Slang term for a male individual, usually straight, who is more than passable as an attractive female. The term can also be applied to an attractive transvestite.

This is when two or more guys dance on a girl, as she dances, while surrounding her and blocking all paths of escape. Normally done in a club or party to avoid being rejected. This is typically performed just to fuck with her and make her feel like her shit really does stink.
"Yo that girl ova there fine as hell but YOU KNOW she stuck up, lets trap her"
The girl, "What the fuck?!?!" as she attempts to escape and reject you all but cant.
Disclaimer: If your black do not attempt this move on a white chick as it may lead to incarceration.

Southern Slang
It's a location where the people are poor and they are trapped there because of lack of jobs, or "the white man" (corporate america) is holding them down
Glorified by drug dealers, a place where they can set up shop.
Also could mean a spot to sell drugs and there is only one way in or out.
