    cis (same) vs trans (opposite). Hence trans fats

    CIS? WTF! I can't keep up with all these different labels and frankly don't care which little box I fit in. Whatever it is, I'm sure there's a shrink out there who will charge me $ to tell me and prescribe a pill to fix whatever it is they perceive is "wrong".
    I'm just me, always have been.

    Cis is just a word to describe people who aren't trans. Why are you so offended?
    It's easy to say you're "just you" when no one's ever told you your gender doesn't exist.

    Quite the opposite, actually. Cisgendered is the privileged majority; trans* is the oppressed minority. We have many cisgendered privileges.

    If there are any cis straights, I'm curious to know what brings you here. Gay family and/or close friends? Thinking you were once gay but am no longer?

    I'm so confused by what CIS is.

    So if your biologically male, and psychologically male....are you a male or not?

    Cis --> Cisgendered --> Identifies with own sex at birth

    So the answer to your question is yes. A cisgendered person identifies their own gender identity with what they were born with biologically. So, for example, I am a cisgendered male.

    Cisgender means that your birth sex matches your mental image of yourself.

    For example, a women who is happy being a women in cisgender (or Cis for short).

    A women that is not happy being a women and does not identify as a women is trans*.
