What are cis and trans alternate types of? I don’t think it’s “gender identity” because wouldn’t that just be man, woman or nonbinary regardless of whether they’re cis or trans? Cis/trans just being a qualifier?

If the answer is “I am cis” or “I am trans”, what is the question?

Edit: Someone came up with the term “gender congruity” and (after looking up the definition of “congruity”) I think this describes what I’m talking about perfectly.

      Why bother catering to such a vanishingly small segment of the population with your language?

      Because people like you are using the language to exclude people and attack them. And if we’re going to make laws and shit it has to be precise.

      In what way are we “catering” to these people?
