Not transgender, that is, having a gender identity or gender role that society considers appropriate for the sex one was assigned at birth. The prefix cis- is pronounced like "sis".
Also known as “Cis”
It’s a scientific term that means you identify as the sex you were given at birth. If you were born a female and you identify as female, then you are cisgender female. Same with male. IT IS NOT A SLUR.
Person 1: "The word cis or cisgender is a scientific term"
Person 2: "No, it is slur!!"
Person 1: "IT'S NOT A SLUR SHUT UP"
Not a derogatory term at all as many transgender people use it to describe people they know and sometimes love.
Cisgender is a term for someone who has a gender identity that aligns with what they were assigned at birth. The term was created for referring to "non-transgender" people without alienating transgender people. Basically if you were born a woman and do womanly things and like to be referred to as a woman, then you are a cisgender. Not a bad thing.
I don’t feel my gender in my bones the way some people do—the way my wife, who’s a cisgender lesbian, describes feeling about her femaleness.
