I would refer to a non trans man as a cis man if the conversation was about trans people, as I said in my previous post. It's no different to you saying "non trans men" in your post. You used those words to identify a man who was born male, that's exactly the same as saying "cis man"

Thanks for explaining about the men, I was curious. It's been a very interesting discussion, thanks for the chat. Remember though that we may not mean offense but to appear to be recategorizing someone's gender can be offensive.
