The Baroness retweeting an idea re making the use of the word 'cis' laughable - a plausible tactic?

If you're on twitter per-aps maybe retweeting

Excellent; sometimes I think the use of it is only ever to wind women up and we do take the bait.

Perfect answers in several words?

"Cis? Lol"

Any others?

Ha! On the original tweet there was a post suggesting

CIS = Can't Imagine Sex etc.

Some dozy apath has psoted "It isn't an acronym" and linked to a dictionary defintion Grin If I was on Twitter I would have laughed at that tweet

My stock answer: I am not a stereoisomer, therefore I am not cis.

I find "cis off" works for me.
