Yep. Talked to a queer activist online pre-Rowling and (honestly) asked for his definition of "cis". It was: When you're comfortable and happy with your gender role. To which I replied: Well, that makes me a trans man.

Gave him pause. Any definition of trans that includes me should NOT be presented to children.

Wouldn't that make, like, all feminists trans men? Shit, we could start a movement.

You might be on to something... If we all start IDing as men, maybe people would start listening? And we could get everybody disagreeing with us get kicked of the internet?
