#CIS

Cis+

(note: this was originally coined by pawkips/rotcoric, on a blog which has since been terminated. the archive is here. this post will only contain plaintext.)

A term for to those who identify completely as cisgender, plus additional genders. One doesn’t feel partially cis, one isn’t fluid - one is entirely cis, plus more. One may not know specifically what the additional gender / genders are, so cis+ may be the best way to describe it. Or, one may have a lot of genders, but they all feel like they are simply additional to one’s cis identity.

Being so comfortable in how I present myself, knowing I'm a woman and yet can present in any way I want. Tis a load of fun! And hopefully one day I can get a binder. Just. Looking like a guy is so fun. Like that's ME. I'm just a gal who looks like a guy, ya know?

You don’t have to transition to present how you want.

You can transition if you want, god knows I am in no place to deny people that right, but you do not have to transition to present how you want.

The right people will respect you regardless.

This is about being trans and gnc but the same applies for other modalities: not wanting to transition or just not being trans doesn’t make you Less gnc. It just makes you cis or iso or ipso.

Such a sexy cross-dresser!

It’s wild to me to see transvestigator conspiracy theories online that could be so easily explained by natural human variation. That woman has a deep voice? Yeah, sometimes they do. A woman has broad shoulders?? Maybe she plays rugby or hits the gym a fuckton. There’s a “bulge” in her tight pants?? Maybe her vulva is just fat. All the “markers” of trans woman that transvestigators use to harass any woman aren’t even things unique to trans women.

the only true cisgender people are the ones who log onto the transgender gay sex website everyday and yet withstand the constant background Gender and are still cis. everyone else is a faker

i do think for the world to be a better place that is more accepting of trans people that we have to stop assuming people who are gnc are automatically trans/going to realise they are trans/going to grow up to be trans.

not even in a gatekeeping being trans way because anyone can be trans and if you say you are trans then.. you are.

but acting like trans people are the only gnc people in society really reinforces both the sex and gender binaries when it is truly not that serious.

normalise exploration of gender idk... bcs also not all cis crossdressers or cis gnc ppl are our allies and putting them byproxy into trans spaces is quite dangerous 4 us as well

not to be like "let cis ppl be gnc!!" bcs obviously this is a very internetification of an issue bcs in the real world cis gncness is obviously way more accepted than transness but in trans spaces online I do rly think we need to stop equating being gender non conforming with being trans

i will always dislike the stereotype that cisgender men are just beings who only think / care about sex, so my cis men out there who are asexual or just genuinely don't think sex is that important, you are seen and will always be valid :D /gen

if you feel comfortable explaining, what is cis+? :)

O! Its like!! Hold on lemmie get some screenshots

This is essentially what it is. Having a bit of a crisis in a way, and then going "hmm. I'm gonna stick with what I have" and somehow unlocking other things. It's pretty dang cool!!

In a recent staff post, tumblr staff said that only a quarter of tumblr is lgbtq, and I don’t think anyone’s really convinced of those numbers. Ik this post might not reach that many people but…

(Edit: oh my god guys ik the results are biased okay?? Unfortunately that’s just how polls work. Check my reblog tho gay, was literally the 2nd most trending tag last night. Even if you refuse to believe the statistical literacy of this poll you can still observe that tumblr is still largely very gay compared to the average social media. I talk more about this in a reblog but god. I get it. Polls have never been that good at gathering unbiased results)

What if someone was assigned intersex at birth, and still identifies as intersex, that would therefore make them cis because they identify with their assigned gender.

Intersex people get a pass because they've had forced gender affirming care (in their case I believe it's called Intersex Genital Mutilation) pushed on them for so long. They get to take over the US Virgin Islands or Puerto Rico or something while us trans folks handle the mainland. Hold on, intersex folks reading this, Alaska, or somewhere in the Caribbean
