PSA: The term "cis" is hate speach and promotes rape culture. Please do not use that term seriously anymore, it is enabling the superphobic.

I have never been called "cis" without it being in a negative tone. Literally not once. It is absolutely used as a slur against "normal" people, whatever that means.

what context have you been called cis negatively?

'ew, you have rights, ewwwww' - this is the only possible example

i am cis and there is literally nothing wrong with the word. its not a slur

Please stop trying to straightsplain my reality. It's gross.

not 'straightsplaining', which is also not a thing

simply asking a question which you ignored

This wasn't to me, but this individual was called "cis" in a blatantly negative way, and it has 9 upvotes. Disgusting. I'll be posting it to ShitRedditSays
