minus-squarevery smart Idiot@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoAlright. I get what trans people are. Those are people that attempt to transition their physical features from their born sex to the opposite sex. But what do you mean with cis people? Do you mean normal, or generic, or average? I only know the terms cis and trans primarily from chemistry, even though those are old nomenclature.
