Cisgender.....what the fuck does that mean?

[MrSteven]

Well, just emailed a lady who had her gender in her interview as cisgender, I thought that meant crossgender,  wanted to make sure I wasn`t thinking of meeting a bloke in disguise.

Anyway now I`ve upset the cisgender person and apparently am astoundingly ignorant. It means -

"denoting or relating to a person whose sense of personal identity and gender corresponds with their birth sex"

So I think that means the cisgender person was born female and still thinks it`s female and does female stuff. So the person is female. Am I right?!!  Fucking world.

I wouldn't have gone near that with a 10 foot pole...  You have to hire it now otherwise you'll be up in court for gender discrimination bollocks.

[bhudda]

I guess it must be the word people use when they dont want to say theyre just perfectly fucking normal

[Forthports]

 “A number of derivatives of the terms cisgender and cissexual include cis male for "male assigned male at birth", cis female for "female assigned female at birth", analogously cis man and cis woman”

I’m a Cis Bloke then.

World’s gone fuckin’ mad.

[Abs]

World’s gone fuckin’ mad.

It has indeed. Have a look at this link:

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I read somewhere there’s about 170 odd different genders these days!

[Lilywhite]

If we have to start doing that shit I will delete AW.

Advertise as 'cisgender' when there are MTF trans girls NOT advertising as trans. Not a chance. Can't have it both ways.

It won't be just on AW that you'll need to call yourself a cis-woman. When self ID comes in, any male will be able to self declare as a women and therefore legally become female. They won't have to see a doctor to be diagnosed with gender dysphoria, they won't have to have had surgery or hormones and they won't even need to dress or live as a women. They'll just have to say "I feel like a woman" then fill out a form. These males will then legally be women with full access to women's prisons, sports, toilets/changing, refuges etc.

So when I text a WG,  I now have to ask if she has a Vagina from birth?

I'm going to feel like a millionaire and then go into BoS and demand they adhere to my human rights.

Cis is a latin prefix and is the opposite of trans
Cisgender and transgender have been around among the sociologist community for over 20 years

Here be dinosaurs.  This whole thread could have been resolved with a quick google.

[winkywanky]

Yes, but then you stifle debate.

To debate is human, to extinct is dinosaur.

If we all just Googled all the time we'll become extinct because we'll lose what makes us human.





Oh shit, I sound like a fucking sociologist!     

[geezer_breezer]

  "male assigned male at birth", cis female for "female assigned female at birth"

Mental indeed. Sex isn't "assigned", it's observed.

This thread isn't a debate?  The OP is showing his ignorance and then doing mock exasperation, to run sort of shtick the Bernard Manning would be doing if he was still alive.  Setting yourself up as baffled by a changing world isn't good approach, keep up or go the way of the dinosaurs.

It just goes to show that the majority of people couldn't give a fuck what you identify as.

It is a debate, which is good, and that was my point, if the tendency is to immediately Google what something is then there might be less talking about it. Talking about this stuff is good.

Unless, of course, the “changing world” is heading down an evolutionary cul-de-sac in which case the “dinosaurs” will be the ones to thrive and survive. Humanity is littered with examples of trendy fads which look ridiculous when viewed through the prism of time. This latest gender fluid bollocks is a prime example.

[Brain Hole]

"Humanity is littered with examples of trendy fads which look ridiculous when viewed through the prism of time." - True. But it's also littered with things which were difficult for some people to accept initially and which turned out to clearly be correct in the end. How have you concluded that this issue is a trendy fad?

"This latest gender fluid bollocks is a prime example." Any evidence for this?

[Matrix]

Looks like this thread triggered someone enough to actually make a post! 

A serious question; When was it decided that the vast majority of sensible, normal people have to start sharing the delusions of folk with clear mental issues that deny thousands of years of scientific research and reality?

If they want to call themselves particular names and dress up funny, good luck to them. Leave the rest of us to discuss what we please.

Good point.

Do you have any examples of this that weren't backed up by science and evidence?

EDIT; I feel that I must state that I find being referred to as "CISGENDER" incredibly offensive and I'm going to throw a tantrum if I see that disgusting term being used inappropriately again. I'm sure you all care deeply about my feelings and pretend right not to be offended, so please be respectful in future.


My preferred pronoun is "Master" but I will respond to "Emperor" if I'm addressed in a respectful manner. 

Sounds a bit fucking silly, doesn't it?

Well yes, the way things are going, the 'dinosaurs' will be the only ones procreating.

I was trying to show my “right on” creds at the weekend and said I was cis male. I was rudely corrected. I’m cis hetro male. This stops confusion with cis homo males.

It’s a mine field.

[BobAJobMan]

It's ridiculous virtue signalling.

[Steely Dan]

Cisgender has its origin in the Latin-derived prefix cis-, meaning "on this side of", which is the opposite of trans-, meaning "across from" or "on the other side of". This usage can be seen in the cis–trans distinction in chemistry.

Next we will have para, meta and ortho sexual.  I think these naming dudes are chemistry geeks in disguise! Me, I am dodecahedral-sexual. That means I want 12 babes at once.

I did google it, hence the copy and paste dictionary definition.
But I still couldn`t quite believe it was necessary so was indeed a bit baffled and thought I would put my genuine exasperation & befuddlement out there for dissection and further education..
I guess what this means is that you could meet a lady one day and when she waves her cock at you you`ll just need to get over it because she`s a he who happens to be identifying as a lady on Tuesdays and Thursday? One presumes you`ll express mock indignation but still get on with it just to prove you aren`t a dinosaur and are down with the rest of the snowflakes and baristas
And we`re all going the way of the dinosaurs regardless of what gender anyone identifies with. Cheers!

I think that makes sense in this industry, after all it is selling sex we're dealing with here.

As for other industries and large corporations, I suspect this will become yet more PC bollocks which has nothing to do with people's jobs, but everything to do with making them feel somehow entitled to get special treatment rather than just 'getting on with it'.

Oh ffs. It’s a world gone mad in my opinion.
I respect that people may view the world differently to myself but I believe there only to be two genders.

Sam Smith the singer currently came out and stated he wanted his pronouns to be “they” and “them” I thought it was bullshit to be honest and attention seeking.

As others have briefly alluded to, this is clearly an attempt at a bit of PC-PR by AW. They clearly fail to see the comical irony in it, however.

As while I obviously disagree with such backward views, the majority of modern, liberal, mainstream society increasingly sees prostitution as a form of patriarchal, misogynistic female oppression - mainly due to a consistent infiltration of the increasingly over-sensitive snowflake agenda - a massive hypocriful irony in itself, of course.

Point being, AW could offer pension schemes, life insurance and interest-free mortgages to girls who work from their site. But even then, the retro jug-drinking coffee shop, pathetically precious, political wankster crowd would still cry prejudice for them failing to grant a transgender tortoise the same the rights.

So why fucking bother at all?

Nah, I'm not that, intolerably smug (but fuck-all to smug about), fat, hypocrite, Tory bastard, Patel, at her conference last week.

A daughter of Indian immigrants, born in Islington and raised in Harrow, preaching to a crowd of shire racists that she doesn't need North London Liberal views on immigration. It's just about as good as the Donald labelling most Mexicans in America thieves and rapists (further irony, of course) when his mother fell off the boat at Ellis Island as a wee cleaner wumman fae Stornaway.

You have to wonder how the even the choir didn't laugh her off stage. Fat-arsed cunt.
