Why shouldn't they? Women had to build their own. Transwomen can do the work.https://twitter.com/HPluckrose/status/908470193478946816 …
Can't remember when I started. In order to distinguish between the people indicated by those terms, obviously.

I understand (same for me btw). You don't remember what made you start to do that though?
-
So that I could say 'women who are not trans' without using up lots of characters.
-
I'm interested to know what words you used before and how words like trans & cis were introduced in your vocabulary. What triggered that?
-
I learnt the word *cis* when I started discussing trans rights.
-
Yes, before there was 'cis' there was 'trans'. But what was there before 'trans'? What words did you use then?
-
I didn't discuss trans issues before I discussed trans issues.
-
Why? Did 'trans issues' not exist? Was it a taboo to talk about them? Were there no words to talk about them? Were you unaware of them?
-
Please go away unless you have a point to make.
