Cis is a term used by some to denote a person who accepts the gender of the sex they were born with. So a man who was born Male or a women born female would be cis. CIS comes from latin and is a prefix for 'on this side of' as trans is a prefix of the opposite side.
So normal. CIS is a term invented by
a term invented by and used by the transexual community.
People looked for a word to mean the opposite of trans.And the chemists already had one, so people who aren't trans are cis.
Every day Boris takes the risk that someone will point out that he's a liar and that... nothing will be done about it.
Cis has meant "same" and trans has meant "opposite" since the Romans decided to write in Latin.
Ministers are selected and deselected on the whim of whoever has control of the prime minister's scrotum,
your earnings depend on your willingness to take risks,
the prefixes are in common use
I think he was showing off. Et quis non latina dicet hodie? Cur scriptum italicum extet?

Ministerial posts attract an additional £67,505 on top of an MP's stipend, but you have to take a chance on who the PM will be shagging (or being shagged by) next week if you take out a loan on the basis of total earnings.
Unfortunately that is how the gender pay gap work it's the difference between all the pay of women employed compared to all the pay of men. That's how feminists calculated it.

Well I dont think the people that created the terminology wanted to Express negative connotations but it is the case that some in the trans activists community use CIS as a slur. Cis is bad, cis and white worse, cis white and Male is effectively Hilter, for some.

I already referenced the factual feminists
Quote from: Jolly2 on 26/04/2021 13:30:04 women generally work In lowering paying areas like teaching So, the prejudice is (as it has been for a couple of hundred years) that teaching isn't a "proper" job, so it's poorly paid.If it was a real job then men would "have to" do it.Again, you are muddling cause and effect.It's not women who chose that teaching (and nursing) should be poorly paid.On the other hand, it is broadly men who decided that politics should be well paid.
