If a male passes for a female, in that he causes genuine confusion in his observers, he is a trap. The use of ''trap'' to describe passable cross-dressers and transgender people originated from the Fark [[meme]] "[[It's a trap|IT'S A TRAP]]," twisted and adapted to [[/b/]]'s purposes.

=== IT'S A TRAP ===
[[It's a trap]] is a meme based on the line by Admiral Ackbar in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi; started on Fark around 2002, and spread to the rest of the Internet over a period of years, before ending up on /b/.
 
The original meme was transformed into a response to pictures of men who appear to be women; a "trap" set out to catch the unsuspecting observer into getting turned on by a picture of a man because he thought it was actually a woman.
 
==== IT'S A TARP ====
"''It's a trap''" continued to degenerate into '''IT'S A TARP''', keeping the same meaning. New [[photoshops]] depicting actual [[w:Tarpaulin|tarps]] were created, to go along with the modified meme.
 
==== Reverse trap ====
The term '''reverse trap''' came about to mean the opposite of a trap: a girl who looks like a boy, a female cross-dresser or transgender person.
