Get the Catgender mug.Cisgender (often abbreviated to simply cis) is a term for people whose experiences of their own gender agree with the sex they were assigned at birth. Cisgender may also be defined as those who have "a gender identity or perform a gender role society considers appropriate for one's sex."
Many also noticed a shift in their friendships after they transitioned, with some struggling to make friends with cisgender men, unsure of the social cues of male friendship.

Get the cisgender mug.Transgender MtF: "I am so moody, I have PMS!"
Cisgender person to MtF: "No you do NOT have PMS, stop cisgender appropriating. You as a MtF do not have a uterus or ovaries. PMS happens in the days after ovulation because estrogen and progesterone levels begin falling dramatically if you are not pregnant. Coming down from your estradiol injection the day "before injection day" is NOT premenstrual syndrome assholes!}.
