Sallygirl is the original counterpart before it fell out of use in favor of a slur (s***y) because tomboy was ok but sallygirl was discouraged. Tomgirl is more like futch or girly tomboy. Femboy is a more recent coining that doesn’t have a counterpart because we still have tomboy
Wikipedia gives Janegirl rather than Sallygirl, but they may be wrong. Yet I haven’t met any of this words in real life. I find both cuter than s***y which come with so much other meanings…
