Gifts For Trans Men
Finding the perfect present for someone is a real skill. And especially now, when we’re all so much more careful with the money we spend. So making sure that we give something that has real meaning and value to someone you love and care about has taken on extra importance.
Whether you’re looking for gifts for a trans man who's a partner, a family member, a best friend, or even as a Secret Santa gift, finding the right thing to give the amazing man in your life can sometimes seem daunting. But we think we have some wonderful things to choose from.
Not so long ago the choices for trans people that reflected their identity were pretty limited, with the all-over-flag look being the only real option. But we aim to change that.
As a business co-founded and run by a trans woman, our aim is to celebrate trans identity, and we do it by focussing more on design, on creating things that are fun and playful and that allow trans people to decide how, and how much, they want to identify. So there are things that he can wear anywhere and not feel like he’s announcing his identity to the world. Unless that’s something he wants to do. Or we also have lots of accessories to choose from and homewares to be able to feel connected to the community behind closed doors.
From tees to shoes and artwork to notebooks, we’ve got something for most tastes. So let’s take a look at a few of our favourite gifts for trans men.
Gifts For Trans Men Who Are Out And Proud
If you’re looking for original and colourful gifts for trans men who are happy to show their identity then clothing is always a popular option, and a great t-shirt or hoodie will go down a storm. But depending on the time of year the perfect gift ideas can also include sweaters or even flip flops!! Our Trans Lightning T-Shirts, Protect The Dolls and The Mascs Tee or any of our trans rights tees are always popular, and for when it gets a bit cooler, our lovely Hoodies are a perfect gift. You can see our full trans range here.
Gifts For Trans Men Who Want To Be More Subtle
For many trans men their identity is not something they want to share in public, so we offer some things that other shops won’t offer, to keep the trans identity it low key, or even just for him alone.
Rainbow Gifts
As you’d expect from a shop called The Rainbow Stores, we have plenty of things with the rainbow pride flag on, and the ones featuring the trans inclusive Progress Pride Flag are particularly popular with trans men. Here are a few, but we have way more of these Pride Flag items in the shop here.
Gifts For Trans Boyfriends
Quite often the things we buy for our partners are different. Maybe a bit more intimate or playful because we know that person just so much better and we can afford to have some fun with their presents. So if you’re searching for something a little more fun and playful for your boyfriend then we have a few gifts worth considering.
Wedding Gifts For Trans Men
OK so bear with us on this, because classic wedding gifts are things like toasters, duvet covers and cutlery. We don't have any of that! What we do have are some fab art prints and clothes. Let's face it, if a honeymoon isn't just about eat, love, sleep repeat then what is it…?
Birthday and Christmas Gifts For Trans Men
Yes of course we should make our partners feel special every day, but we also know that it’s important to mark those anniversary dates, and let our loved one feel extra valued and loved on those days. So here are a selection of anniversary gifts, some that have a love element to them, to leave no-one in doubt about how you feel. For our full selection of love hearts of all shapes and sizes. You can see our full love collection here
Gifts for Trans Activists
As the trans community has come under greter threat from governments, Christan Nationalists and anti-trans groups, more and more of us have become a lot more politically active, to fight for the rights we have, and try to win more. If you have someone in your life who's prepared to go that extra mile for the community we have many gifts for them.
Gifts for Trans Dads
It's so awesome that there are so many trans men who have become parents. And the seahorse has become a defacto emblem of trans dads, because the male seahorse is unique in the animal kingdom for being the sex that carries and gives birth to its young.
Gifts for Trans Men Who Identify As Queer
Gender identity and sexuality are separate. Trans is a gender identity, and all of us have a sexuality too. And that doesn't always mean straight. Although queer is still contentious for some older LGBTQ+ men, it's much more commonly used among the under 30 age group. And many trans men identify as queer. And we have loads of lovely queer merch much of it featuring the spectacularly colourful Queer Pride Flag.
Gifts for Gay Trans Men
Many trans men identify as gay, or MLM (men loving men). So here are a few gifts that use the five or seven stripe versions of the MLM Pride flag, or are specifically for gay men.
Gifts for Trans Allies
Trans people have so many allies. And every one of them is incredibly important to us. Being an ally is more than speaking up on social media. It's putting a little of yourself on the line. Supporting trans rights in public, when you may be criticised for it. So these items are all for our allies to wear and take with them, to show their amazing support, in public.
Of course this is just a curated selection of what we have on offer. And there’s loads more clothing, accessories and home wear in the trans section of our shop. But if you’re after gifts for that special man in your life we think we have it covered.
If you're not sure what to buy him there's always our Rainbow Stores Gift Cards. They come in a range of values from £5 up to £100 and they never run out, so he can take his time to choose from any of our lovely ranges.
However, if you're looking for something personalised then we are more than happy to work with you and create something with his name on it just for you. If you message us at contact@therainbowstores.com and let us know the product you're interested in then we'll do a unique design for you and you won't pay any more than the standard cost of the item.
So we wish you lots of luck in your search, if you didn't find anything from us that you thought was right, remember that we constantly have new products, designs and ranges being added, so bookmark us and hopefully you'll find something that's perfect for him next time.
