@StevenBrust You mean "cis"? As in, a person whose gender identity and the gender they were assigned at birth are aligned?

@StevenBrust "cis" is identifying as bio-gender. i.e., not *trans/genderqueer. Basically, a term to make it not-unmarked/assumed.@tithenai1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Is it ilimited to sex/gender, or does the same thing apply to race?

@StevenBrust "Cisracial" doesn't have much currency b/c being "transracial" is, uh, not well-regarded conceptually.@matociquala@tithenai1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Okay, I think I get it. One gets to chose one's sex regardless of biology, but not one's race?
