Me: I don’t recognise the term ‘cis’. Please don’t call me it. Trans activist: Tough. You can’t change who you are or how others see you. Me: Well…this is awkward…

Calling yourself cis unnecessarily concedes the point that gender identity exists, and that it should be used to define what sports programs and showers you should use.

In the same way that calling yourself an infidel unnecessarily concedes the point that Allah exists, and that you should be denied entry to Mecca and probably stoned.

Just call me non-trans or a non-Muslim. I don't define myself by your silly beliefs, and that non-belief doesn't comprise a cohesive group by default.
