"Cis" and "trans" are different types of a person's.... what? - Lemmy.world

What are cis and trans alternate types of? I don’t think it’s “gender identity” because wouldn’t that just be man, woman or nonbinary regardless of whether they’re cis or trans? Cis/trans just being a qualifier? If the answer is “I am cis” or “I am trans”, what is the question?

CIS is simply opposite of TRANS - they simply describe someone's identity in terms of their physiology.

Confusion rises, somewhat, when you factor in masculinity/femininity to the equation - but basically 'trans' means that having a dick doesn't mean you're a man... 'cis' means that being a man means you have a penis.

So this is everything boils down to. My god you western nations have incredible life if you have time to argue over these things.

Half the world is starving and Americans are arguing over peepee.

It's not a bad thing, isn't it. I think the goal should be that the whole world is stable enough that no one is worried about their next meal and everyone has the privilege to ruminate about gender.
