    I will never understand how the word cis or cisgender is a slur. If your a cisgender then you are literally a cisgender. I am a cisgender male, plane and simple

      They just don’t like being categorized, especially by what they consider “woke nonsense”. They think they should be the default and pointing out that they are actually a part of a subgroup (albeit a huge one) annoys them. They don’t have the self reflection to understand why, but it does.

      They consider themselves the “default” aka the only ones who are not “the others” and thus not wrong about everything up to and including existing.

      They are also snowflakes who can’t cope with their bigoted worldview being questioned in any way without playing the innocent martyr, so anything that implies that their perspective isn’t the only legitimate one is considered viciously evil.
