@nelsonlflores No. "Cis" is absurd. An analogy: If Rachel Dolezal called herself "trans Black" & called Black ppl "cis Black," we wld reject this b/c it: 1) makes Black ppl a subset of ourselves; 2) redefines us in relation to someone who isn't even Black Similarly, I am not a "cis woman."
@KProtein19 @seanmdav @nelsonlflores CIS MEANS NORMAL THEREFORE IS MEANINGLESS TRANS MEANS PRETEND
@KProtein19 @nelsonlflores This. This is GREAT! I'm a plain old woman, no prefix or suffix.
@KProtein19 @genspect @nelsonlflores I refuse to tolerate anyone anyone describing me as a 'Cis man'. I'm a Man, the word is taken! I don't care what a woman who thinks she's a man call her self, but she doesn't get to use man in any context!
@KProtein19 @nelsonlflores Thank you! Yes. I don't even like that trans women are a subset of women, but that's a compromise I'm willing to take if this cis crap disappears. But if I get called cis much more, I might have to start calling them chicks with dicks or wannabe women or something.
@KProtein19 @nelsonlflores False equivalence. Race (or clines, to use the scientific term) are biological. Gender identity is sociological and therefore a case of self-identification. We get it, you are biologically female
