    I just explained the whole "sucking dick behind Olive Garden" joke to my coworkers. I feel that it will take off here in the office.

    I've heard that the white stones in that red building each represent one noblemans head lost to the danish king!

    Though it feels like unreliable info!

    In my opinion, cis and trans are pretty damn obscure ways of describing gender or sexuality.

    Well, at least "cisgendered" is definitely not common at any level of laymanship.

    Obscure? Yes to a layperson, but there's absolutely nothing wrong with having specialized terminology for people that actually know their shit.

    Same - which is really the only reason I had a snowball's chance in hell of actually understanding what cisgendered meant.

    Yet I was still confused.

    Rivs, what I'm saying is that people were getting a bit tetchy at the fact that people might not know what cisgendered implies when they really shouldn't seeing as it's not a word anyone would be expected to know as a layperson.

    Like I wouldn't expect you to know what cholecystitis is.

    Sarks was just being a jerk. I just looked it up in the dictionary, and the prefix 'cis' as explained in my college dictionary would have left me with no clue whatsoever what the prefix would mean when stuck on the front of "gender".

    'Cisgender' of course isn't even in the dictionary, because it's a neologism. However desperately the term may have been needed in gender studies, it's not a common use word and abusing someone for not understanding it is the kind of 'elitism' which we are currently pretending doesn't exist.

    Cisgender is the opposite of transgender, hence the slash separating the two in my explanation. It was a pretty simple explanation but I don't see why it warranted getting so mad at my joke suggesting a chemistry class, among other things. Gee-whiz.
