I’d rather have a more honed argument than what I provided. I hate the arrogance and presumptiveness and bubble-world aspects of “don’t say ‘cis’ because normal is just normalgrillman style arguments so I’m seeing red here.

    The real reason for the argument is that they do not want to give trans people a higher stage of social recognition, which has happened to other minorities before. Maybe pointing out that people said the exact same thing about the term “straight” would work? It is also pretty easy to make fun of them by making them say they are not cis, and then acting like they just came out to you.
