I am not a woman because I identify as one, or feel like one, but because I was born with ovaries, a uterus, and their external markers. The existence of the word cisgender is an attempt to nullify this fact and tell people like me that the only reason we don't realize that our gender identity exists and IS our identity is because we're "cis."
Excellent analysis. I didn't get it either and thought it was extreme, but didn't dare say so in public. Now all bets are off and I'm prepared to weaponize language right back at them. Apparently I'm a GD antivaxxer, but so are most of us. Whoo hoo!
