Why using the word “cisgender” is asinine

Socrates and Friends-

Given the relatively small number of people who suffer from gender dysphoria, it doesn’t make much sense to have a category devoted to people who do not suffer from it. “Cisgender” people constitute the vast majority of the population. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, shouldn’t we just assume that people don’t have gender dysphoria, much as we might assume that people don’t have other ailments, like tuberculosis or AIDS? We don’t have a word that specifically describes the condition of not having each particular disease or disorder, so why do we have one for people who do not suffer from gender dysphoria?

To “normalize” the transgender experience, of course. To use the word “cisgender” is to tacitly affirm that being transgender is just as normal as not being transgender, even though this just isn’t the case.

  1. WTF does that mean?

    I know I got a bacla brother in law who doesn’t
    give a shit that people think he’s queer and he’s
    good with that. He likes being a girl.
    He doesn’t want other people’s acceptance or
    public attention, he just wants to live his life
    as he knows it.

    ‘nuf said.

  2. I likes me some pussy, I likes me some hips and I likes me some tits. Get my pronoun right, I ain’t fucked up therefore I will go with the time honored him, his, or maybe in this day and age guy that doesn’t need a male clinic or Viagra to get a hard on when pussy presents itself.

  3. Cisgender, like heterosexual, is another word invented to use in place of the correct word which is normal. One can be either homosexual or normal. Gender dysphoric or normal. See how that works?

  4. It’s just plain easier to control people when you can put them into categories. When you have one giant category called “normal”, it’s harder to pick out the ones you don’t agree with.

  5. IT’S ALL SOOOO “Western Oppressive”-ish!

    The prefix “cis” is from the EEEEVIL LATIN,
    meaning “on the same side of”!

    HOW DARE THEY!!!

  6. Cisgender = stable mental health.

    Any of the other xyz = delusional.

    delusional
    [dih-loo-zhuh-nl]
    adjective
    having false or unrealistic beliefs or opinions:

    Senators who think they will get agreement on a comprehensive tax bill are delusional.

    Psychiatry.maintaining fixed false beliefs even when confronted with facts, usually as a result of mental illness:
    He was so delusional and paranoid that he thought everybody was conspiring against him.

  7. There is no chirality in sex. There is in chemistry, a hard science discipline. Commies co-opt respected nomenclature attempting to legitimize their degeneracy and mainstream it.

    Truth is not a leftwing value.

  8. Soooo, pushing gender neutrality, why have ANY reference to gender, anywhere? No more vagina hats, feminism, sexism, gender questions on forms, drivers’ licenses, passports, etc., everybody does their own thing and everybody ignores them, ESPECIALLY government. The same for “race” and “religion”.

  9. Language matters. The moment we embraced the phrase “gay marriage” it was over. We should have rejected that from the onset. Gay is the time you have after a yabba-doo time. My marriage to my wife was very gay. We even had karaoke. We embrace this “cisgender” at our peril. Reject the opposition’s terms at every opportunity!
