    You could call the inside and outside faces of a door or walls of a house cis and trans if you wanted. It's as common a distinction as left/right or top/bottom. It's not magical. The Apollo astronauts landed on the cis side of the moon, Pink Floyd sang about the trans side.

      Clever. Makes sense. I knew Transylvania means "other side of the forest." Forgot about Gaul. Never think about molecules, that's the wife's job.

        However, there are times when I call cis people "cisgender" and they're like "what the hell did you just call me?"

          Cis is like "flesh colored." People are so used to it being the default, even though it shouldn't be, that they get confused when you have a name for it. For them it was always just the air they breathed.



          I remember my parents had the exact same reaction to "straight." They were essentially, "we don't need a name for what we are -- we're NORMAL!"

          Dr. Mrs. tells a great story about a white student in one of her classes having a lightbulb moment and saying "wow -- I have a color, too!" That's what's going on with cis people right now and the Usual Suspects are a-scurred.

            I thought we killed this topic yesterday, but since Fish wants to keep it going... would someone make popcorn and uncork my Moscato? I will enjoy watching him dig a hole from which he can't escape.

              I also find it funny how much Fishing is projecting.
              You guys need some reading comprehension lessons. Fish likened the intolerance of other points of view as being MAGA-like, not the actual intent of policies being discussed. It seemed pretty clear to me.

                  I got what he meant but it makes zero sense so I can see why they might've been unclear.

                    Fish's logical fallacy is that intolerance of the intolerant, constitutes one's own equivalently dangerous intolerance. Therefore, we have to have a more centrist "understanding" of LGBT-phobes and people like him who apparently feel the need to escort their granddaughters to the unisex toilet with a loaded firearm.

                    Poppycock. There's a reason why you can't fly a Swastika flag and run around singing Horst-Wessel-Lied in Germany, and it's a d@mn good one.

                    Oh wait, I just Godwin'd. Whatever.

                        I suspect we won't be hearing more from him in this thread. He already bluffed on an offsuit 2/7 waiting for the river card, and got called on it.

                          He also knows he went too far calling me "Mister."

                                No I dont...I purposefully misinterpreted it and ran with it because it made me smile. I wanted everyone to have an image of Some 50+ year old guy in Tweed using big words, telling us how flyover country sucks whilst wearing a MAGA hat like I did
