    Isn’t there an explicit bias in your statement? I think it’s kind of relevant that the vast, vast majority of humans don’t even consider this stuff, because they take no issue with accepting that they are men or women. Is that wrong? Are people wrong to think that it’s ok to just be what you are? I genuinely don’t get it.

    By far, by every metric, people are divided into men and women. There are rare exclusions, and those people should be treated just as well as everybody else. It doesn’t matter who they love or what they identify as. They are humans as every human, but it’s bizarre to demand that the totality of humanity abandon their intuitive instincts about masculinity and femininity.

    I mean by your own argument, surely normal “CIS” people (whatever that means, I genuinely don’t know, I don’t keep up with ideological abbreviations) also have a right to be heterosexual women and men. Are they not allowed to believe what people have believed for literally millions of years? I find that offensive. I extend you the courtesy to believe to be whoever you wish, and I acquiesce. Surely you should be able to do the same, otherwise you’re just dictating your beliefs and demanding everybody accepts whatever it is that you say.

      Cis is a prefix. It is the opposite of trans. In this context it’s obviously an abbreviation for cisgender va transgender.

      Cis means “this side,” trans means “the reverse side.” You see them used in chemistry, for example cis/trans-isomerism. Even Julius Caesar’s writings reference cisalpine Gaul and transalpine Gaul (the part of Gaul on this side of the Alps vs the part on the other side of the Alps)

      Hope that helps you “keep up” with the English language.

        It’s funny how it always devolves into name calling and domination tactics instead of actual argument. That only proves that this is not really about gender and equality, it’s about using moral condemnation as a weapon to dominate others. It’s very reminiscent of how fascists operate.

        Do you have any kind of actual argument you would like to discuss?

          Oh the irony.

          I did tell you my stunts arguments, you started whining about your speech being blocked by “us” (whatever that means), then you proceeded to confirm you don’t know basic language.

          I would like to discuss, but honestly not with uninformed trolls. I see you have a pretty recent account, that+ your behavior leads me to believe you’re just avoiding the ban you rightfully earned. I’ll let you to rant a bit, will see you in your next account.
