Is CIS a legal term?

I object to people saying "but humans cant change sex" with wide eyes and wringing hands and pretending they are either too insensitive or too dim to understand the impact that has on people.

I'm not pretending or wide eyed. Their feelings are their own, if people want to deny reality they need to accept that other people will point out the truth, because reality doesn't respect people's individual sensibilities.

Humans cannot change sex. That is a fact.

@beautyisthefaceisee technically they are right, humans can't change sex. You can't change whether you have XX or XY chromosomes which are what determines the sex.

The irony is not lost on you then.

none of which are comparable to trans, but well done on doubling down on the offense.

Only for one group of people. I bet you can't give me an example of any other time you behave/speak like that about people.

Flat earthers? People who think covid is a government conspiracy? People who deny climate change exists?

But humans can't change sex

Its true though.

You find the word cisgender offensive and somehow we shouldnt use it but its okay to mock, degrade and belittle trans people?

No, i'm calling the fact you thiink other people have pronouns just to upset you wonderfully arrogant.

The same people who expect me to refuse to use the word ciswoman at work because it offends them.

Feminists are the ones making all the demands while not giving 1mm to the other side.

All about me?

If someone is rude to me I have no reason to be nice to them
You think o am. Second class citizen whose thoughts and feelings are irrelevant?

The huge effort put forth into trying to convince women they can't say no, they can't opt out of the religion.

Soz. Not doing it.

Call yourself what you like. And your power ends there.

"Yes, feminists, it appears!"

Lol

I suspect the problem is I am too educated. I was an early adopter, back in 2004. Saw the transwomen I knew as women, the non-binaries as non-binary and all that. "Woman" was a gender identity.

I have literally never seen any biological males as women and don't plan to start now. Woman has its original meaning, so they will need to find another word.

Pronouns as a thing seems to be another thing that people wish was a law rather just a trendy new practice.

oh yes, because its all about you.

Yes, feminists, it appears!

Are you another one implying the link to paedophilia? I would hope not.

I don't use the word cis in conversation, cause I know it can offend.

"None of us get to decide what people think of us inside their heads" - I assume you've never used any expression on here which dismisses trans people's identity then?

My problem is neither. My problem is people who expect me to respect things that offend them but don't offer trans people the same respect.

I think mocking pronouns is rather inevitable- basically by trying to get people to state pronouns you are forcing them to chose a gender , which means e have established , is really offensive

You act rude to someone it's hardly surprising they see no need to show you respect

I have to carefully monitor my speech for pronouns, engage in amateur neuro-linguistic programming, but they canot, not even for a second, refrain from telling me that I'm "cis". I remember now1

It's also at odds with the PPs other description of 'Ciswoman' as relating to her own adherence to feminine stereotypes.

If reality is offensive to someone , they can't dictate to me that I must lie about it.

It's very necessary though.

Yes. It wasn't for millennia and it shouldn't be now, but it really is.

I'm not saying those definitions have to define you. I'm just stating the definitions of the words. Whether you want to use them to describe yourself or not is up to you.

@beautyisthefaceisee you object to accurate scientific statements being made in general? Or do you mean in reference to discussing transgender ideology? Or do you mean directly to a specific trans person?

If a transwoman asked me directly if I thought they were female, I must lie and say that they are? Even though that's not true and not what I believe?
