After all the controversy this week on Twitter, I'm reposting this piece I wrote back in 2019 because it's more relevant than ever.

If I had a #Twitter account, I could get #BANNED for defending the use of the words #cis and #cisgender (which just means "not #transgender"). And I'm cis myself. 🤦

In other words #ElonMusk may have accidentally declared war on 99% of the population, including himself. 🤣

Profile edit: added "Cisgendered male."

"Dad. Husband. Cisgendered male. Apple 2 computer enthusiast. SAS programmer. Data analyst. Scientist. LGBTQIA+ ally. BLM."

#CisIsNotASlur is trending on Twitter, or at least it was. https://blog.politicoid.us/when-cis-is-a-slur-835b72f574fe

Maybe I should log back into Twitter long enough to update my profile to specify that I'm a cisgender male (and maybe add "cis male" for good measure). And then see what happens. I.e., see how long it takes them to boot me for using "a slur"... to describe *myself*.
