We are not a subclass of our own sex. I'm not a "cis" woman. I AM a woman, the ones that need to be clarified are the trans ones, not us lmao

I feel like it was used as a tool to get us used to being subclassified and now they want to just be called woman or man while we are the "cis" ones... its just to subvert reality ig

But other markers are used, so why not cis too? The default group always gets offended when they're labeled lol I don't say cis (unless I'm trying to blend in with the TRAs on Reddit lol) but I may start using it to antagonize people... like when I call out white women or straight women, and they say "why are you saying white/straight?!" 😄 because I'm black/gay and not talking about my own demographics! I am othering the default/majority groups. 😋

I think thats different tho... we are all women but there are things that different us by sexual orientation or skin collor, i dont get how cis is the same as those if you could explain it i would be thankful 😭
