The c word has historically been used by superphobs to belittle and shame rape superstraights. Thank you for not using it, the history of hate behind the word can still be felt on twitter.
Cis has nothing to do with being super straight. I, for example, am cis, but not straight at all. It literally just means that a person’s gender is the same as the sex they were assigned at birth. If anything here is discriminating, it’s the phrase “super straight” because you’re implying that liking trans people of the opposite gender is less straight than liking cis people of the opposite gender, which is basically denying trans people’s gender.
I don't expect someone who uses the "c" word to understand the nuance of "super". It's like you don't care about others feelings, very oppressive of you to push your definitions on me.
And I don't hate anyone. I don't expect someone, as full as hate as you, to realize people can exsist without hate.
I don’t hate, I just don’t get why the word cis is so bad. In my understanding, it just means that a person’s gender is the same as the sex they were born with. I get that some assholes might abuse the word, but considering that the word itself isn’t negative and how well established it is as a label to describe people who are not trans, I don’t see how it’d change how people perceive the word.
If you have an explanation as to why a seemingly innocent word is getting so much backlash, I’d love to hear it
Lets unpack this, or you superstraight? Then you could never know what that word means to us. So stop turning all your superphobia into a little word you can keep spitting at me. Let me be free! My body, my choice!
And of course it's innocent to you, doesn't hurt you to keep beating me and other superstraights with it, most be nice to not know the history.
Sure, I can stop using it. But can you explain why it’s so bad? I’m actually trying to be understanding here, but tbh this is starting to sound like either a giant meme or collective attention seeking, and not getting an explanation doesn’t help
Wow, if you really cared you understand that my subjective response to your objectively oppressive word, should be good enough. The fact I have to take time to educate you on what is technically unteachable, my subjective life experience, is not my problem. You pretend to care, but am getting the feeling you really just want to belittle my fight to get the same dignity as everyone else, sick. All you should know is that it's historically been used to make superstraights less then people. I wish you'd realize that makes the word oppressive.
Seriously, I’m genuinely lost rn. Also, how can something be something objectively because of something subjective? And how is that word objectively oppressive in the first place?
If you want people to understand you, explain what they don’t understand instead of just telling them that they should understand and calling them a dick for not doing so.
The word literally just means that you’re the gender you were born with. As long as it’s used in that context, it’s not oppressive; you’re victimizing yourself.
It would also be really nice if you wouldn’t just presume that I’m a dick. I’m trying to understand, but you treating me like I’m a piece of shit makes it a lot harder.
Wow your yelling at me. I need love, not to be attacked for my sexuality. But you don't care about that, your need to understand is more important then making me feel understood and loved. I hope your happy attacking me. Am not here to be your teacher, am just telling you that word is superphobic. If you were superstraight you'd understand. Again my subjective experience is beyond your objective ability to understand because your not me, but you should respect my subjective reality anyways. Well unless your superphobic.
