“Cisgender privileges” is in your triggers. “Cisgendered” is a buzzword that deviants came up with to 'un-normalize' normality. There are no “cisgendered" people. You either identify as the gender from your birth, or don’t (hence trans, etc). Disambiguating “cisgender privileges” as a trigger translates to “it disturbs me that there are people who identify with their birth gender, who aren't abnormal, and will be treated as such”. Oppressing back doesn't lead to equality. You know this, right?

You’re being really transphobic and that isn’t okay. Being cis isn’t “normal” and thinking so is disgusting. And cis people are the oppressors and therefore cannot be oppressed.

Anon is right, and what they said was a DEFINITION of the term “cis”. That in no way whatsoever shows any signs of transphobia. They were simply defining a term that came up to make a specific group feel just as special as another.

How dare you accuse people of something with no reason. Cis is normal and it’s also science for at least three other things (A genus of beetle for one).  Cis in this case refers to people born in origin gender and don’t care too much about changing it. That has nothing to do with transphobia. Transphobia is a fear of gender changed persons. Anon in no way shows fear in trans persons.

do some research on terms and l2r
