‘Cisgender’ is offensive!
*puts on a mask*
Why? Because it puts non-trans people like me in a category… and being put into a category means we have to see trans people as equals…. and, if we see them as our equals, it means they are just as normal… and, if they are just as normal, it means we won’t have any reasons to dehumanise them…
And, if we can’t dehumanise them, how the fuck can we feel good about ourselves? How the fuck can we do that if we don’t have anyone to trample on?
This is a reason why we deliberately frame “cis” as a slur made by trans people. Not because it is actually one, but because many people (especially imbeciles) will fall for it.
That way, there will be more reasons to hate trans people; not only they are perceived as perverts, they will be perceived as bigots as well!
Once the hatred increases, it will be harder for trans people to be seen as human beings… and the harder it is for them to be seen as ones, the longer they will stay marginalised… and the more they stay marginalised, the more we can trample on them…
… And the more we can trample on them, the easier it is for us to stay feeling powerful, to stay feeling like we are the only normal ones.
