Try to have a rational and calm discourse about trans folks on X. You will necessarily need to compare the lived experiences of trans people and people who are not trans, which will probably result in you using the prefix "cis" (which is the literal opposite of the prefix trans). You will get moderated for doing so.


I refuse to use "cis". I'm not a subtype.


Cis didn't originate from gender. Cislunar, cisalpine, etc.

And it's ok for you to not identify as cis. You get to have whatever identity you want.

We are discussing a platform that censors discussion when that discussion includes trans and not trans people. Unless you are X, the platform, I don't think your identity is germane. (And once again, you are valid.)


That isn't justification to censor the term.
