'Cis' is hostile? I remember being quite pleased the first time I became aware of 'cis' and related terms - it filled a lexical hole that I had not realized was there.


Weird passage of time at work today - doing really tedious stuff apparently makes the day fly by. Probably because I can devote a portion of my brain to pre-writing.

Re: the last link, I feel the same way as you do about 'cis' filling a hole in my vocabulary I hadn't realized was there, and I think if someone's going to object to 'cis', they should suggest an alternate term that doesn't have transphobic connotations. I'm not aware of any terms that serve as well as 'cis' does, and I didn't read the entire linked discussion, but in the original comment complaining about 'cis', at least, I didn't see any alternate term offered.

I think that any new term would be bikeshedding. 'Cis' is functional.
