'Cis' is quite literally aligning someone's personality with their biological sex which is a regressive, reductive, anti-feminist, and misogynistic.
Cis woman, is a sexist term that implies that there are two kinds of women: female and male ones, making the word woman something people identify as. This is an ideological lie, because we are a protected class on the basis of our biological sex, not our internal sense of being.
Women, as a female class, have in common physiology, sex based historic and systematic oppression, similar political and medical needs and goals, and we are united not by our femininity, but by the protected class that we as females share.
It is colonization and appropriation to add a prefix to the identifying word of a marginalized demographic and declare people outside that class a subclass of them.
I don't navigate the world categorizing people by identities, I reject the notion that people should present or behave in any particular way because of their reproductive system.
Cis-gender is defined as an adjective denoting a person whose identity (gender) corresponds with their sex. I reject the idea that personal identities are sexed at all.
Cis-gender is defined as an adjective denoting a person whose identity (gender) corresponds with their sex. Telling a person they have a sexed identity (gender) when they don't, is mis-gendering.
Cis is a form of linguistic misogyny, it robs us of our unique sexual denominator by which we have been historically and systematically oppressed, while intimidating us into accepting the absurd proposition that a human male could change biological sex just by announcing it.
I'm not cis-gender because my sense of personal identity doesn't correspond or relate with my sex, I don't subscribe to any culture's expectations about how I should behave or present, on the basis of my sex. I don't owe anyone femininity or transition.
I have transcended gender, meaning I don't subscribe to any roles and expectations of how I should present myself or behave on the basis of my sex, I don't owe anyone either femininity or transition, I'm gender free.
There are as many ways to be a woman as there are women on the planet, but it's our species, sex and age range that makes us women.
Cis and trans are terms from chemistry that psychologist departments coined, now used often in a derogatory manner by a particular community to show they too, have bigotry and prejudices.
I don't believe in gender. I am simply one out of billions of people, with unique personality, fashion style and lived experiences. My feelings come from my brain, not my reproductive system. I reject the idea that personal identities are sexed.
