Hello, dear reader!
In this short post, I will tell you why I agree with Elon Musk about forbidding the use of the word “cisgender” and why it’s a good idea overall.
Whoever you are, do you like to be labeled? Let’s consider this: if you are transgender, would you prefer to be separated from cisgender individuals? Would you rather be referred to as a trans girl/boy or simply as a girl/boy? I believe you would likely prefer the latter. Seriously, why label people? What’s the purpose? It’s so nonsensical. Then, how should I be addressed? Non-binary trans girl? That’s quite lengthy, isn’t it?!
Why would anyone want to be called a trans/cis/non-binary/etc male/female? Why complicate everything? Seriously, let’s stop segregating people. A trans male/female is a male/female, a cisgender male/female is a male/female, and NOTHING else.
STOP SEGREGATING PEOPLE. Don’t be an idiot.
