The fatigue a trans or nonbinary person feels after having to defend or explain their personhood and identity to a cis (cisgender) person.
Person A: Isn’t that the sixth time your supervisor has misgendered you?
Person B: Yeah, and it’s the sixth time today I’ve had to correct her on my pronouns; I feel like she’s never going to get them right. I have so much cis fatigue right now.

Get the Cismug. Si Ci is an absolute legend. Her ability to instagram copious amounts of food (on the hour, every hour) while simultaneously completing intensive study makes you feel like an under achiever for sure.
Not only is she a restaurant/eatery connoisseur but Si Ci is an Ultimate frisbee superstar. While her mad throwing skills & defensive prowess make her a teammate’s favourite; the thing her team loves about her the most is how she laughs at everyone’s jokes making them feel hilarious.
Luckily she has no plans to leave us. Ever.

Get the cis +mug. Typically used in terms like cisgender or cissexual. Cisgender people are those who remain their gender observed at birth by the doctor, cissexual refers to people who are attracted to those who are their birth gender. Can also be used as an acronym like "Comfortable In Self" which can imply those who are choosing a different gender than at birth (transgender) aren't comfortable with their existing self prior to transitioning which is true given gender dysphoria as a mental illness.
This guy is cis, he was born a male and chose to remain a male rather than transition to another gender.
