Can’t we all just accept the plumbing we were born with? I have no idea what cis this or trans that means.

Stupid.

CIS. Means people who use the term have brain cysts.

They’re terms from organic chemistry, misapplied to so-called “gender identity”.

A cis-oriented isomer (“isomer” meaning a molecule with all the same atoms, but in different places depending on the molecule) has certain identifying chemical groups on the same side of the molecule, while a trans-oriented isomer has them on opposite sides. (Illustration below shows the cis and trans isomers of 2-butene.)

Exactly if you want to be a feminine man or a masculine woman be one, but be the chromosome gender you were born to be.

I remember decades ago that it was considered to be “mad scientist” doctors in Sweden operating to redesign a person’s body.

I agree with what you mean, I think.

But part of the problem is reducing sex to "plumbing." We don't have a male sex or a female sex because of "plumbing." We're male or female all the way through.
