I'm not saying that you're necessarily wrong, but is it really necessary to police language to this extent? I get why "cis" is offensive. I think it's a word that's primarily used as a tool to silence women. However, those of us coming from libfem backgrounds have been pretty well conditioned to use that kind of language. Deprogramming that is a process, and being yelled at about it in a place that is supposed to be supportive isn't particularly helpful.

I literally found GC and GCdebatesQT LAST NIGHT and today they're gone! I don't see how anything that I read qualified as "hate speech." I didn't agree with everything I read there, but it was such a relief to find a place where people were saying some of the things that I've been thinking but NOT in a hateful way.
