A cis person is the opposite of trans*, that is, a person born in a body that matches their gender identity. Quick version: Not trans.

Edited by Hektik: 10/22/2014 9:29:33 PMA person who is cis identifies as the gender they were born into. A person who is not cis does not identify with the gender they were born into. Edit: this is my understanding, I could be wrong in some form or another.

Ah ok thanks for explaining. Just for curiosity sake and to see how far behind I am when did all this calling people cis started?
-
Now that I am not sure of. I only recently found out about the term.
-
Not really long ago, at least that I know. Declaring one-self as cis is just a way of stating "Yo, I know about the stuff. I know about trans* issues. I'm an ally". It also helps to de-normalize cis, thus normalizing trans- In general, it's just a way of saying that you are an ally.

Ah ok thanks for explaining, and who says forums aren't educational! :)

Nope, you are totally fine. More accurate than my explanation in fact.

Thank you
