    As soon as you van stop using weird vocabulary as “cis man”, i would start thinking about saying any of that.

    Yes, there is a lotmof right wing bullshit going on but this entire Snowflake “Im special so we need to change language” is in large part what has pushed so many people to trump yo begin with.

    To out it simple: you’re part of the problem. Fix yourself too

      Do you have the same problem with all adjectives that describe a majority? Heterosexual, right-handed, etc.?

      Ah, I didn’t appeal to the right wing voter base, what a shame.

      Yes everyone would be cool with trans people and not bigots if only they didn’t use silly little acronyms

            An acronym is a word which is formed by the first letters of a name for something, such as “laser” (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) or “radar” (RAdio Detecting And Ranging).

            “Cis” isn’t that. It’s a Latin word which is the opposite of “trans”.

      I see we’re in the “Trump was elected because of political correctness” phase. I remember this from 2015.
