I see it as fake manufactured and insulting word. 

I get the point that YOU want to USE it. I wish you would get the point that I DON'T want to HEAR or READ it.  Can't you just shut up and get back to the OP!

  • Why would cisgender people be even remotely likely to face discrimination?? I was born a man, I live life as a man and I have no problem when other people refer to me as a man. Mind you with

    I personally experienced this as a cisgender gay man in the US so I can imagine such discrimination is magnified for transgender people anywhere. Yes a common result is avoidance of health care a

Cisgender does not refer to sex.

The word is about getting identity.

Woof woof.

 

Now you can call someone anything you want.  That does not change the fact that biologically there are only XX and XY Chromosones.  The fact that a person self identifies as a horse does not make them an Equine.  For centuries, the practice of "identifying" was known as pretending.  That is actually what is still is. 

Cisgender
  1. denoting or relating to a person whose gender identity corresponds with the sex registered for them at birth; not transgender.

Yes that is the definition of cisgender.

You really should look up about sex being bimodal for a start. Again, have to repeat it, sex and gender are not the same. If you think identifying as a gender that has clear characteristics and social norms that people follow, is somehow like identifying as a horse, just shows a low IQ

There are plenty of words for gay men that you would object to.

No comment on IQ but it does reflect willful ignorance and a reactionary political stance.

Actual slurs.

Cisgender not a slur.

Big difference.

So that would be a bit redundant, unless there is a new definition of 'gender' I'm not aware of.  I'm old school, and tire of people changing the meaning or applying words incorrectly to fit their spin.  Somehow, people just seem to accept and or force it onto others.   It really is getting silly.

 

Gender is the sex (male/female) at birth.   You don't get to choose your gender.  What is your gender/sex at birth ... means the same thing.

 

Origin is from Latin - Genus.  Again, people, in 1980s & 90s, decided to use it differently.   About same time someone invented or decided to use  'cis' in conjunction with gender.  The silliness remains.

 

What new words will people attempt to force us to use in the future.

You are making it my problem by making nonsensical posts after post after posts. 

Give it a bloody rest. 

You are just trolling now.. 

I do not know how often I have asked this and never received a sensible answer but just one last time!

Why must you keep on and on and on about a word that many people do not want to be referred to/as?

Cis was never devised as a slut though, was it? And you will find the gay community has coopted those words, so no I wouldn't have a problem with them. See, I am not a snowflake.

No I need a safe space from the nasty bigoted idiots who are just deliberately prolonging the promotion of this meaningless word!

So, basically you have made up something in your head to get angry about, well done.

No you lot made up the meaningless and pointless word!

I'm sticking with the oldies but goodies:

Straight/Heterosexual

Gay

BiSexual

 

Do we need any more ?  Although, saying that, I do prefer PanSexual, all inclusive, and I've learned, 'never to say never' ... as that expression is against my religion; Raëlism

 

In your mind, and mind only, if you want to 'trans' into something else, feel free, but you're still a male or female @ birth & now, no matter what you think, but imagine you want to be afterward.  

 

On Topic, as always ???? the doc will only care if you are a male or female, the same thing that's on you admission/registration form.  Keep it simple.

I said gender identity.

Not gender.

 

But that didn't suit your agenda so you ignored it.

 

 

Force?

Hilarious.

It has a definition previously posted and if you think it's pointless don't use it. Sorted.

Fat chance.

I would suggest that anyone who believes that there are more than two genders pretty well establishes that persons intelligence.

More like the opposite.

Gender and sex do not have the same meaning. One is social, and the other is biological.

See? Really smart people all know that wearing a dress makes you a women, and only straight men "date" ladyboys. 

Again, docs care about one thing, if you are male or female, as treatment is different for different ailments that only each may have.

 

Here's to add to the silliness, as if a doc needs to be told, you don't identify with any or multiple genders ????
