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.

Get the Cisgender mug.People who identify as the gender they were born with. The opposite of transgender. There are idiots in the world who believe cis is a made up word because they clearly don't know the small technology device they use to spread their ignorance, can actually be used to gain simple knowledge....
The terms “cis” and “trans” are from Latin, in which cis means "on this side"2 and trans means "on the other side" or "across". The term "geometric isomerism" is considered an obsolete synonym of "cis/trans isomerism"

I was born with a vagina and identify as a lesbian (I.e A homosexual WOMAN) so I'm cisgendered and so is my sister, also born with a vagina and identities as a woman, who is married to cisgendered Bob(who was born with a penis, and feels like a man) who has 2 brothers, a very feminine homosexual cisgender(born with a penis, wears heels sometimes but feels like a better man because of it) brother, Joe, the other brother Jack is homosexual transgender (born with a vagina, feels like a man (possibly do gender reassignment) and dates both cis- and trans-gender men). I have no idea why people think cisgendered is a hate word or made by unicorns but it's just an better term to use when talking to people who are trying understand when describing a difference between the two.

Get the cisgender house mistress mug.TERFs and herernormative pushing people often express Cisgenderism. Basically cisgender people who are discriminating or mislabeling or deadnaming or just misgendering Transgender people's expressed/true gender.
It is Cisgenderism to refer to someone past tense even as a child and retroactively misgendering them.
