Cisgender isn’t some derogatory label given to non-trans people by trans people it’s literally just what someone who identifies the same as what they were born is called.

I prefer born woman. It takes the same amount of time to say, and I don't have to resort to a Latin term to let people know who I am. Trans woman, born women, worth the same, but are different.

i think it very much depends what your social circle is. The term cis just isn't used in my social circle, and the only place i have ever seen it used is on this forum, which is pretty ironic really given that posters are anonymous and we have no idea what sex or gender anyone is

Do you call yourself caucasian in your circle?

It's the same type of a thing, only applies when needed for differentiation

Why don't you have the same attitude about every other Latin word that's used in speech? Bizarre.

Unless you've ever used the word female, that is

I think you’ll find born woman takes 0.87457692 more seconds to say than cis
