Yes, Wikipedia has it:

"Cisgender (often abbreviated to simply cis) is a term for people whose gender identity matches the sex that they were assigned at birth. Cisgender may also be defined as those who have "a gender identity or perform a gender role society considers appropriate for one's sex". It is the opposite of the term transgender."

Recently, I’ve discovered my attraction to trans women.

Yeah, dude. I got news for you.

You basically tell them, you are a gay man, can’t comes to grips with it, so requires his men have female characteristics....

Or, more likely, you were abused by a man sexually at a young age, and you did not receive proper therapy for your abuse, and now your mind has created this desire for men harkening back to those early exposures to sexual pleasures, but are equally afraid of men because it was also a man who caused you that pain, so you have decided to find a man who somewhat looks like a woman.

Same reason “gay” women date butch women... they were most likely abused by a man in their life, and want a man, but are afraid of them, so they go for a woman who looks like a man.

Lets be honest, if you find women attractive or men attractive you don’t find yourself chasing ones that look like the other gender.

My bet is, sir, that you are a victim of early childhood sexual abuse by a male.

Start by telling everyone that the ‘cisgender’ or ‘transgender’ is an individual having serious psychological identity issues.......

Meh. I just ignore it all except for laughs and to see Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro own these guys on youtube videos. I’ve known a lot of homosexuals in my travels (I lived in Seattle for 46 years), but I’ve only known one transgender, and I didn’t know he was until he showed up at our five year get-together after a Y2K project.

Everyone was wondering who the ugly middle aged woman in a red dress was sitting in the corner kinda pouting. I found out a week later who it was.:-D

“Man up and tell them that you’re sexually attracted to a man who pretends to be a woman.”

That’s right. Own up to the fact you are dating a chick with a d*ck!

What does it mean, to suddenly realize you’re into beautiful girls with penises? What is that, exactly? Well, I’ve loved women all this time, but something was always missing... ah, I’ve figured it out!

So this is a new gender or orientation. What letter does it start with so we can included it in LGBTQRS etc.? philotrans? Transphil? #2weinersbetterthan1

A fag wants to have sex with a crossdresser, and he wants all his friends and family to tell him it’s okay.

Oh, you won't need to tell them, friend. They'll notice in about 15 seconds.

It wasn’t easy for me, either, but here is the appropriate terminology and meaning:

“Trans-” = Fake

So a transwoman is a fake woman, a guy who either has or has not lopped off the applicable equipment.

How should I break it to them?

Invite them over to your house for a bar-b-que party, get them all drunk on their asses then tell them you are a homosexual...There will be laughter galore and mass celebration.

......easy peezie.....

Cisgender with an “attraction to trans women” (in pre-2000s speak) is a dude who thinks he isn’t (and doesn’t want to be) gay but actually likes transvestites.

Your partner is trans-gender?
You’re gay man.
