A queer individual that holds the belief that you require gender dysphoria to identify as transgender.
The beliefs of some truscums can be a bit extreme, though most aren't. The one thing all truscums have in common is that they believe you must experience some form of gender dysphoria (no matter what form of dysphoria, as long as it is existent) to be able to identify as transgender.

The cool trans people on the block who are actually afraid and want to protect our rights. With many people thinking our medical condition is a cool thing to possess, they impersonate us and tarnish our originally not horrible image. Some of us are hopeless and well aware that if shit continues the way it does, we may lose our rights.

Truscum is a transphobic transgender person who holds a definition like its moral code instead of understanding that every transgender journey is different
Truscum: “you can’t be trans! You don’t feel dysphoria every second of the day!”
Transgender person: “you don’t need to constantly be suffering to be trans, and you’re a truscum”
Transgender person: “you don’t need to constantly be suffering to be trans, and you’re a truscum”
