I mean really?
I was discussing (ranting) about this with DH today. Trying to explain why I'm a woman and not a cis female.

Then he come out with this beauty (not being nasty): Doesn't it just mean Cunt In Situ?

I was absolutely howling mainly because it's true

Your DH has it about right, OP. It's an unnecessary, rude label for a woman.

Cis is tautological. It’s the concordant sex-based prefix to the sex-based nouns man and woman. It’s used to legitimise the logical fallacies of male women and female men, as trans is the opposite sex (discordant) prefix to sex-based nouns.

No he meant as in women have a cunt. Men don't.

Not negging. He doesn't do that.

It means that as a women you identify with and therefore have chosen to be paid less, to be sexually objectified, take on the majority of caring, to be vulnerable to rape, to be sexually harassed, to die in menstrual huts, be married at 9 if you are unfotunate to start your period then, to be denied an education, to be sacked because you might get pregnant, to be talked over in meetings, to be pimped, etc etc. Because if only you identified as trans then none of these things would have happened to you.

It’s negging without a compliment
