I learned a new word today... Cisgender

Chelsea Manning
But I'm still not sure what it is. Can someone help me out? Like, what's the difference between transgender and cisgender?

Cisgender is when your gender matches your sex at birth.
You are a cis male.
You are a cis male.

OK, then why isn't that just called 'gender.?' Is a cisgender a guy who is born male, continues to like women sexually, but wants to trade in his penis for a pussy?

Cis and trans are opposites
commonly used prefixes in science.
I suppose every who isn't transgender is Cisgendered, but it isn't a term used commonly unless you are a ring liberal

I'm not sure how much you know about Manning but after his arrest he demanded a sex change operation. That would make him transgender.
I'm not sure if he got one or not since then. But he used the term and I still don't understand what he means.
BTW, what's a 'ring liberal?'

No, a cis male is a person who is born with a penis and identifies as a male. A trans male is a person who is born with a vagina and identifies as a male.
Neither label has anything to do with sexual orientation (homo or heterosexual).

Because apparently they both have to have labels, to be equal. Or something like that. Basically, having people born as males labelled "males" and people born as females who become males as "trans males" is supposed to make trans males feel less accepted, so they slap labels on both. That's my understanding anyway.
I support transgender rights but the whole "cis" labelling thing is just fricking weird IMO.

Trans is latin for "across"
Transatlantic
Transcontinental
Transgender
Cis is latin for "on this side of"
it is commonly used in chemistry for different molecular structures of the same complaint.
Basically the opposite of trans is cis.
Transgender is the opposite of Cisgender
As a word it makes perfect sense, but it is usually just used to remind people of there "privilege"
Ring liberals are Raging liberals with spell check taking over.

I suppose it will become popular to chastise those who are 'cis privileged'.
Posted on 12/9/14 at 1:39 pm to Zach
Is that when the Bro is attracted to the Cis?
Posted on 12/9/14 at 1:52 pm to Zach
Manning is trans because he was born with a penis and didn't identify with being male.
Your are cis because you were born with a penis and identify with being male. There used to not be a word for it because there was never a need to describe someone like this. The term "cis-gender" is an unnecessary qualifier.

I just think it's funny that people get all bent out of shape about the word "cisgender". It's needed in scientific settings and when speaking with someone transgendered in a counseling role.

So
Cis = normal
Trans = fricked up
Got it.
