Please stop with this “cisgender” bullshit, I find it extremely offensive. You are either a man or a women as the default. You don’t go around saying stuff like “the WET rain” do you? Please FFS just stop.

Women. Technology can tell who are women. Funnily enough so can other humans. Almost without fail.

Do not refer to women as 'cisgender'. We don't need some shitty label based on shitty stereotypes, thank you.

I don't have a gender. I have a sex. And I'm not cis anything. I am a woman - born biologically female. Women are not a subcategory of their own sex. sexnotgender

How do you know they’re “cisgender”? Did you ask the women if they have a gender identity, and if so, what it is?

I hate the term cis. I was born female. I am female. I am a woman. Not a ciswoman

What they won’t do to encourage more people to become trans ?

Spew out your newspaper's bigoted prejudices day today is it?
