Not end of, unless you're not willing to listen to reason. "Cisgender" means you are happy with your assigned sex. I am a guy and happy being so, therefore I am cisgender. If you aren't, you aren't.
It isn't an offensive or degoratory label in any way shape or form. It's like refusing to be called "english" because you don't want to be labelled as such. It's purely trivial.
