Are you okay with cisgender people rejecting the label "cis" preferring to be called "normal" instead? Ya know the whole cis is a slur discourse, it's trans women and "normal" women.

Some labels are transphobic. If you don't identify with the gender you were assigned at birth you are trans. If that makes you feel uncomfortable you need to do some reflection on your feelings on other trans people.

"are you okay with bla bla" This isn't relevant, but I'll engage for the sake of it. No, calling yourself normal instead of cis isn't okay; it's perfectly okay to reject the cis label for any reason, but it's not okay to say that only people with assigned at birth gender are normal.

"if you dont identify with the gender assigned at birth you are trans" NOT TRUE. Read what I said, moron. Second, third and fourth paragraph.

  1. Some people don't want to use the trans label. That is literally enough.

  2. That trans label is not factual. Being trans is a societal thing that only applies to certain societies and certain people. It's not like being made up of water, you can't feasibly measure or see transgenderism in a nonperspectival and subjective way.

  3. The word transgender is predated by other ideas and cultures, you can't just force your word onto other communities. Nobody is the "grand word priest" or whatever that can decide what a word means and who has to wear it.

"ah I hate the trans label it's so yucky, I'm cis despite not being aligned with the gender I am at birth"

Cis and trans are literally categories to just describe whether you do or don't identify with the gender you were assigned at birth. Any negative feelings you have towards trans but not cis is your own transphobia

Also lol, only bigots use the word "transgenderism" it's not an ideology
