With people constantly redefining gender to make people feel better, allowing for people to be Indian or black just because, well...after all....they really FEEL black....we cant be shocked that this is happening.
The future is going to be fun to watch.
Its a good thing all these pushes to find 'tolerance' and acceptance are making people all healthy and ****.....cisspecies. No really, that's the term for thinking you were born in the right species. :doh
Apparently a cis gendered individual is one who: Believes their physical sex and psychological gender match (a masculine male - a feminine female).
??? They had to come up with a special strange-sounding term JUST to say 'male' and 'female' ??? Why so - because a small percentage of people don't identify as their physical gender in a social or psychological sense? So it's now a budding term (coined not too long ago) which attempt to PC genders down a bit?
I read the term in an article today which declared that over 70% of women who work in the publishing industry identify as cis-gender... and I had to look it up. (article here.)
I, for the record, absolutely hate that term - but never cared about it because I didn't realized it was SUPPOSED TO apply to me. Now that I know what the term means I refuse to refer to myself as something so ridiculous sounding as 'cis' anything.
And further, I believe that MOST PEOPLE don't identify themselves as 'cis-gender'. Most people don't even know what the hell it means. It didn't need a special definition before - and I think the decision to use the term is done only by people who are either trying to be unnecessarily PC or who are offended by the fact that most people don't have gender conflict issues. . . .as if it's strange and odd to be okay with what you were born to be.

Most people don't think of themselves as homo sapien. That doesn't mean the term is wrong, or should be eradicated. It's just not a label you're accustomed to hearing or using.And further, I believe that MOST PEOPLE don't identify themselves as 'cis-gender'.
That is because most people are normal. cis-gendered pc-tard term was invented so that abnormal people don't feel bad.Apparently a cis gendered individual is one who: Believes their physical sex and psychological gender match (a masculine male - a feminine female).

Just to give everyone an indication of what I think of the word cisgender, I still won't use the term Ms to label a female...it is Mrs or Miss to me still, so I am not going to jump on the new invented words bandwagon anytime soon.
You're more than a year behind South Park. :mrgreen:

Yep
A handful of people involved in abstruse political discussions about human sexuality use "cisgender" to be a bit more clear about the gender identities involved. It's jargon.
The study in question was run by a group that researches diversity. It'd be a bit of a surprise if they were not using technical terms like that.
I for one have never, ever seen or heard anyone use it in normal conversation. I don't see much reason to get upset about it. It's not an insult, and nothing about the term changes who you are. It's just a recognition that your gender and biological identities match.
Ms is short for Miss, isn't it? Or . . . I'm missing something.

ROFL. You're cisgendered whether you like it or not. I doubt the term is going to go away. There needs to be some word to refer to the opposite of transgender.I, for the record, absolutely hate that term - but never cared about it because I didn't realized it was SUPPOSED TO apply to me.

Yeah, screw women who don't want to be judged or addressed by whether they're married or not. #sarcasm

What does that make me?
Normal? :shrug:
