adj form of cisgender
The opposite of transgendered, someone who is cisgendered has a gender identity that agrees with their societally recognized sex.
Many transgender people prefer "cisgender" to "biological", "genetic", or "real" male or female because of the implications of those words. Using the term "biological female" or "genetic female" to describe cisgendered individuals excludes transgendered men, who also fit that description. To call a cisgendered woman a "real woman" is exclusive of transwomen, who are considered within their communities to be "real" women, also.

The "n" word for Identifarian feminists. According to them, it's a serious crime. If you're also a white male, it's a crime that apparently should be punishable by death, or at least a lifetime of suffering and self-loathing and kowtowing to feminist ideology.
Suzy: O.M.G. Look at that privileged cisgendered white male scumbag talking to Jen about feminism!

He's cisgendered, but he's had enough acting training to do a better job as a female impersonator than most trannies.
