What are cis and trans alternate types of? I don’t think it’s “gender identity” because wouldn’t that just be man, woman or nonbinary regardless of whether they’re cis or trans? Cis/trans just being a qualifier?

If the answer is “I am cis” or “I am trans”, what is the question?

Edit: Someone came up with the term “gender congruity” and (after looking up the definition of “congruity”) I think this describes what I’m talking about perfectly.

    I’m still not sure where the term cis comes from.

    It reminds me of sans, as in ‘without’

    Sans Serrif means a font without the twiddly bits at the end.

    Cis Serrif, a font with the twiddly bits it was born with?
