I disagree, it's another word hijacked, and it's meaning changed to suit an agenda.
-
What did it mean before? And what word should be used instead?
-
It's a chemistry term referring to molecular structures, can't remember the rest off hand, and why do we 'need' a word?
-
Thought it just prefix for 'same.' So I can talk abt gender identity w/out having to say 'women who identify as same...

...sex as their reproductive system' every time. As I talk abt it mostly on Twitter, that helps a lot.

yeh but it's used in a manner to make you're opinion invalid. When your opinion is valid.

It can be, yes. Shame that's the context most ppl hear it in.
-
honestly I feel it's often the context it's used in. Despite being cis myself. Still used as a negative which is bs imho

Meh. I feel like 90% of the time when someone says it towards me it's an act of devaluing my opinions by identity.
