A term used in the anime community to describe the character archetype of male characters who dress and present themselves as women (not to be confused with transgenderism), a good example would be Chihiro Fujisaki from Danganronpa.
However, it should be noted that people in the LGBT community have criticized the word as people started using the term as a slur against trans women, along with it's relation to the gay/trans panic defense legal strategy.
Instead, you should try using the Japanese term "otokonoko" when talking about these characters.

An outdated term in the western anime community that use to refer to male characters with strikingly feminine characteristics, either through natural andronicity or strikingly convincing crossdressing and expresses with feminine mannerisms, either as a self indulging act or accidental second nature.
The term was originally used because westerners weren't use to Japan's crossdressing subculture boom in the early 2000s, resulting in many characters striking the viewer's fancy by accident.
Modern terms are tomgirl, crossdressers or, for a broader cultured umbrellas, otokonoko.
Bridget became popular with both men and women, who both attempted to cosplay as him. As a result, this gave birth to traps that we know today.
